The Clarabella Groad gravel bike adventure will take you through  northern Isabella County. Farmland and forest, rolling terrain, and sparkling lakes provide the backdrop for a true Michigan cycling experience. Hosted by Heart of the Lakes, Ray's Bike Shop and Revolution Racing. 

Choose Your Challenge:

• Grass Lake Grit: A rugged, 50.7 mile course that winds through northern Isabella County. Male and Female racers will be broken into under/over 40 year old classes.
• Brinton Brevet: The same 50.7 mile course as the Grass Lake Grit ridden at 12-15 mph. Challenge your senses and enjoy the fall air with this non-competitive ride.
• Herrick Hustle: A rugged, 28.5 mile course that winds through northern Isabella County. Male and Female racers will be broken in under/over 40 year old classes.
• Stevenson Shakedown: A 28.5 mile non-competitive ride perfect for both those new to gravel bike riding and those who just want to stretch their legs!

Please note, our event will be capped at 300 participants. Fat bikes and tandems are welcome! Neutral support for the Clarabella Groad will be provided by Ray's Bike Shop. Clarabella Groad's proceeds benefit Heart of the Lakes.
