About this event

We believe that Gravel is a Spirit, driven by adventure, the desire to explore and to discover, to exist out of your confort zone, to be bold, to immerse yourself in nature, to have a free plan, to ride free!. Gravel is a spirit, not a trend, not just a mode of exercise- the wattage is not a factor here- and the performance is not the main drive.
This week is an ode to all adventurous riders out there who cannot resist taking the road less travelled. Come and let us show you the most undiscovered roads of Cyprus.
Of course it goes without saying that no gravel adventure is complete without the after-party. We love to ride but we also like: good specialty coffee, a rare brew, trying new food, talking bikes, pump tracks, music and barbeques.

Description
The first Bedrock Gravel “race” will START and FINISH from The Feed Zone Cafe in Tochni, in front of Activate’s Cyprus main office.
The route is not signed, therefore every participant must download the route on his/her own navigation device and follow it. Make sure you follow the entire route as its published below in Komoot. You must follow the trafic roules at all the time!!!
The way to Lageia is rather ascending with long but smooth uphills and short descents. After Vavla you will be climbing to the highest point of the course which is above the village of Lefkara. The route from Vavla to the top is on wide gravel roads which are rather loose surface and with steep sections.
After Lefkara you descent towards Kornos before you start climbing on the asphalt road halfway to Stavrovouni monastery. At approximately the 50th km you take a right turn to one of the most scenic sections of the race with long descent to Menogia Village.
From there you are riding towards Kofinou through beautiful green fields.
Before you reach the finish you will have to be strong enough to climb the two short but steep hills around Skarinou.
