What distances and categories can I race?

Three distances: 120KM (Individual), 80KM (Individual), and 50KM (Partner · 2 Riders) — the 50KM is ridden as a two-rider pair (one entry covers both riders), with your time recorded when the second rider crosses the line.

Categories: Men's Gravel, Men's MTB, Men's E-bike, Women's Gravel/MTB, and Women's E-bike. Full details in the Regulations.

Is there a minimum age?

Yes — no participant below 18 years old may compete in any variant of the race. Age is determined by deducting your birth year from 2026.

What bike and equipment do I need?

Allowed bikes: gravel bikes (highly recommended), cyclocross bikes, mountain bikes, and e-bikes. Minimum tire sizes: 35C for gravel bikes, 2.1 for mountain bikes.

Helmets are mandatory — no helmet, no ride. All bikes pass a bike check at Saturday check-in before receiving a start sticker. See the Regulations for full equipment rules.

What's included in my race entry?

Timed race entry with official results, a fully marshalled and signed route, aid and hydration stations along the course, and your race kit. The 50KM Partner entry covers both riders — two timed entries and two race kits per purchase.

How does registration work after I buy?

After purchase you'll receive a ticket confirmation email. Rider details — name, category, bike, emergency contact, and waiver acceptance — are completed there for each rider (both riders, for 50KM Partner entries).

What is the cancellation / refund policy?

Cancellations (full refund) and transfers of race entries and hospitality bookings are accepted until 23 September 2026, 11:59 PM (Philippine Time) — email gravelton@graveltonph.com before the deadline. After that date, no cancellations or transfers are accepted.

Group experiences with a minimum participant count are fully refunded if the minimum isn't met and the tour is cancelled. See the Terms & Conditions.
