Gritventure! 3! - WV

Are you one who is always up for any challenge presented to you?  Just love an adventure?  Then Gritventure! 3! is for you!  This challenging ride will have plenty of excellent gravel, beautiful views, quiet roads, stiff climbs, roaring descents, and even some gnarly singletrack.  It’s not an easy ride at 70 miles and over 7,000 feet of elevation gain.

This is a mostly unsupported ride out of Wardensville, West Virginia.  There is no mechanical support or SAG provided. There is one store along the way about 40 miles in.  And to make this even more adventurous for you, we’re not providing you any more details on the route until you register!  Once you register, you will receive an email with start location, GPS map, etc.

Suggested Equipment: Although you can probably ride these routes with just about any bike, a cyclocross, gravel, or adventure bike with 32-40 mm tires would be your best choice.  You’ll want a wide range of gearing, too, as some of the hills can be steep.  A mountain bike would not necessarily be a bad choice.

Cost: 6$

Time: We’ll be there at 8:30, ready to ride at 9:00. We may have 2 different group leaders for different ability levels if you would like to join one, or of course, you can ride on your own or with your own group.

Jerseys: These jerseys are full-zip and made of advanced moisture-wicking fabric to keep you cool and dry.  Rear pockets. Comfortable club fit available in mens and womens. You can order your jersey during registration.  $75. Size Charts below.
