A six-day desert stage race run by a Barcelona-based organiser, with riders living in a shared bivouac camp. For the first time, the 2027 edition has separate gravel and MTB routes. Expect long days on sand and rough tracks.
Checked against the organiser’s official site on 29 September 2026. Dates, routes and entry conditions change — confirm on the official site before booking flights or accommodation. We are not the organiser and take no entries.
Part bike festival, part race meeting: an enormous industry expo at Laguna Seca alongside road, cross-country, downhill, enduro and gravel racing plus two gran fondos. The trade sees it as the season's product launch; riders see it as a weekend of racing anything they own.
A two-day wine-country festival: gravel rides on the Saturday and road rides on the Sunday, on the quiet farm roads around Mudgee. The shortest road option suits families and newer riders.
The original Belgian Waffle Ride: tarmac, dirt, sand and singletrack stitched into one deliberately awkward day out of the Del Mar Polo Fields. The headline Waffle route runs about 106 miles with 7,500 feet of climbing.
