Albia Holy Cow

Friendly to both new and experienced racers, the Iowa Gravel Series is about having a great day in the saddle and riding some of the best roads in Iowa. This is a ride that you can invite your family or buddy to that's new to gravel grinding or group riding and know the route will be well marked and the people friendly. 

Why should I ride Albia?

When I first rode West out of Albia, I didn’t know what to expect. I knew there were a number of Class B roads I wanted to travel along the way, but I didn’t expect to meet acres of grass-fed cattle, beautiful views, river crossings, and even a short ride along the Historic Mormon Trail. It was spectacular and the opportunity to explore Monroe county left me thinking, “Holy Cow this is cool!”

Albia is a fairly hill route, but there are a lot of long descents and nice flats to help you recharge and get ready for the next Class B challenge.
