BCBR Gravel Explorer

The New BCBR Gravel Explorer is Launched

Press Release / 04.02.2021

The BC Bike Race is excited to unveil a new addition to our race calendar: The Gravel Explorer aka BCBR Gravel. This event takes cues from our 15-year BC Bike Race tradition of multi-day stage racing in stunning locations and will take place from Sept. 26th - Oct 1st.

THE OKANAGAN REGION

The course will take full advantage of the varied terrain in the region: wineries, lake country and the Kettle Valley Railway (KVR) and excellent off-road access. The fall colours should be at their finest and the last vestiges of summer will mean warm days and cool evenings.
 
5 EPIC DAYS OF GRAVEL RACING
 
We’ve set our sights on a brash and bold mix of everything a gravel bike is capable of. This event is not about soul crushing mega distances, instead we are creating a fun, challenging course that will explore every nook and cranny available in this unique location.
 
“Who else would you expect to throw; all terrain adventure, multi-day gravel routes and everything under the beautiful Okanagan sky into a blender- add hints of the Naramata bench wineries and a dash of singletrack then uncork with panache – who else but the BC Bike Race”. 
JON BULA, CO-OWNER, BICICLETTA
