2026 MN Gravel Events

The rural roads of Minnesota have become a hotbed for gravel biking, with new races popping up alongside established favorites. It’s not hard to see why this area is a cyclist's paradise. The minimally maintained roads, rolling hills, and stunning rural scenery offer a challenging yet rewarding experience.

What makes these races so special? It's a combination of factors:

  • Diverse Terrain: From smooth dirt to chunky gravel, the roads keep things interesting.
  • Elevation Changes: Expect a good workout with plenty of climbs and descents.
  • Stunning Scenery: The picturesque landscapes are a welcome distraction from the burn in your legs.
  • Unpredictable Weather: Spring and fall races often come with a bit of everything—sun, wind, rain, or even snow—adding an extra layer of challenge.

While some of these events are free, others require a registration fee. However, most share one key characteristic: they are unsupported. This means you're on your own for any repairs, food, or mechanical issues you might face. It's a true test of self-reliance and preparation.

Whether you're a seasoned gravel grinder or a newcomer looking for a new challenge, rural Minnesota’s growing race scene has something for everyone.


Ready to get dusty? As the 2026 gravel cycling season approaches, the calendar is packed with a fantastic mix of races, laid-back rides, and mixed-surface events. The year's schedule features a wide variety of challenges, from local Minnesota favorites to exciting events in neighboring states.

This post will serve as your go-to guide for the season. You'll find a chronological list of all the gravel events I've heard about so far, with a mix of races, rides, and mixed-surface options. Keep in mind that for some events, registration deadlines, participant limits, and other key details are still being finalized. I'll be updating this post regularly as new information becomes available, so be sure to check back often!

Are you an event organizer? If you'd like your race or ride included in this list and on my dedicated event calendars page, please don't hesitate to reach out via email. I'm always looking to add new and exciting events for the gravel community.

Big Changes Are Coming to the Blog!

For years, I've loved sharing my adventures and all things cycling with you on this blog. It's been a true joy to connect with so many of you and see this community grow. But, as life often does, things have gotten a bit busier, and I've found myself with less time to dedicate to the blog.

I was faced with a difficult choice: either shut down the blog completely or find a way to make it work. I'm so glad to say I've decided on the latter! I just couldn't bring myself to walk away from a community I care so much about.

So, here's the plan. From now on, the blog will focus exclusively on two of my favorite cycling disciplines: gravel cycling and winter fatbiking in Minnesota and just across its borders. This new, more focused format will allow me to continue sharing my passion while also freeing up more time for me to get out and ride.

The event calendars you've come to rely on will continue to be updated regularly, but they will now feature only these two types of events. It's my hope that this change will make the blog a better, more useful resource for those of you who share my love for tackling dirt roads and snowy trails.

Thank you all so much for your support and for being a part of this journey. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this blog and for all of us out on the roads and trails.

Happy riding,

Chris Chavie

The 2025 bike season is filling up fast with all sorts of events, rides, tours, races and festivals.  I have compiled a chronological list of events by month with links to more information and some with online registration.  Earlier is better when planning which events you are going to participate in as some have a cap on the number of participants or registration deadlines. Use this August event listing to save the date for the ones you want to participate in.

This post is a work in progress, so bookmark it and check back often for new event listings.  If you are an event organizer and would like to have your event listed in this post, send me an email (or visit my contact page) with the information and available links.
