GRAVEL + ROAD
Ready to ride in the Colorado high country? We’re proud to showcase the world-class gravel and tarmac surfaces around the rugged western town of Gypsum, Colorado. Bighorn Gravel is a unique gravel adventure in the heart of the Rockies, covering rugged singletrack, alpine mountain roads, and backcountry dirt. In 2025, we expanded our successful gravel race with a new offering: Bighorn Road, a tarmac ride along the Colorado River, with a sprinkling of hardpacked dirt to challenge the modern road bike.
Huge thanks to The Town of Gypsum for their generous support and helping us create these unique events. Thanks to their support, we’re able to offer onsite camping, complete with showers and bathrooms.
