BARs are back.

This is the time of year when a lot of riders are building volume and getting ready for long events like G&W, Rock Cobbler, BWR, and similar.

The first BAR is 4 hours, focused on steady endurance at a conversational pace. No hero moves—just consistent riding with limited stops. The goal is simple: keep the pedals turning and stay smooth.

This is considered a workout ride because we’re intentionally minimizing stops. That’s different from a social ride, where regrouping and keeping everyone together is the priority. Ideally, find a rider or small pod and ride steady together, stopping for water or breaks as needed.

There’s no charge for these rides, and they’re self-supported.

Clear expectations up front so everyone gets what they’re coming for.

Our Fundamentals I Clinic is a fun, engaging way for young riders to develop essential off-road biking skills. Through structured drills, games, and exciting activities, riders will gain confidence and competence in essential biking techniques.  Skills are taught in a playful, supportive environment using fun obstacles and games to reinforce learning.

BAR #3 will align with Gravelstoke’s Pie in the Sky ride on Feb 21, replacing the original standalone plan. The focus remains pacing over long distance, targeting ~65–70 miles.

Distance options:

• ~65–70 miles (primary BAR intent)

• 55-mile option — still includes the pie, skips the Preserve lollipop

• 24-mile “No Pie in the Sky” option — for limited time or fitness
