Registration for the Iowa Gravel Classic will re-open June 1, at 8:00 AM on BikeReg. Please join us on July 4 for a day of outdoor fun at Whiterock Conservancy! In order to promote a safe environment and be in compliance with all current guidelines, we are making several changes to the structure of the event. It may look and feel a little different this year, but we hope this will provide a much needed opportunity to have fun together, at a distance. It will be a basic grass roots gravel event this year, and the entry fee has been modified to reflect these changes. Important details: - All riders must be pre-registered. No “day of” entry. No exceptions - We will only be offering a 100K route option. - We are reducing the field size by 50%, capping the field at 100 riders. - The route will be 100% rural gravel and dirt roads and will not go through any towns or near any C-stores. - There will be one water only stop on the course. Other than that, you must be prepared to ride entirely self supported. - You must have mask or buff with you during the event and it must be used at the water stop. Other information: - Check-in will take place in your car, as you are on your way to park. - There will be no mass start. Each rider will be started individually, with a gap between them and the next rider. Finish times will be adjusted appropriately based on starting order. - Event results will be posted online by category within 24 hours of the event finish, but there will not be any awards ceremony, prizing or swag. If you decide to enter, please do so with the self supported, "you are responsible for yourself" gravel rider ethos in mind. We are modifying this event in a manner that makes it possible for you to maintain 6 feet of social distance from others, but it is up to you to maintain that distance. It is also up to you to behave in a manner that does not put either you or your fellow riders at risk. Please do not enter if you are not willing to maintain an appropriate social distance and cover your face in all situations that require it. With that said, let's ride bikes! Instructions, route files, and more information will be emailed out on race week!

Thanks to all who have purchased buffs during our buff sale. We have raised over $1000 for the American Red Cross and Whiterock Conservancy! Our online store is now closed, but we do still have a limited number of buffs available for purchase. Price is $10 per buff plus shipping, and ALL proceeds are donated to charity. If you’d like a buff, send us a message! #whiterockconservancy #americanredcross #iowagravelclassic #iowawindandrock #spottedhorsegravelultra
