Imagine stepping into the rugged beauty of France’s Alpes-Maritimes, where the French Riviera meets its more adventurous side. The GravelMan Series returns to Toulon-sur-Mer in November 2026, promising a fully self-supported adventure that challenges your limits and rewards you with stunning landscapes. This year's edition offers distances ranging from 60 km for those seeking an introduction to the terrain, all the way up to the daunting 500 km route designed for the most daring cyclists. The event features both gravel routes for dust lovers and asphalt paths for road enthusiasts, ensuring there’s a challenge for every level of rider. The course takes you from coastal roads into the Provençal hinterland where elevation gains become significant. For instance, riders tackling the 500 km route will face an impressive 10,000 meters of ascent over two days. The terrain is rocky and demanding, offering a true test for even the most seasoned cyclists. The GravelMan Series prides itself on its spirit of freedom; there are no marked trails or aid stations every few kilometers. Instead, participants rely solely on their GPS tracks to navigate through secret roads that locals rarely venture into during leisurely Sunday rides. This sense of solitude is balanced by a vibrant start line and an introspective journey as you push your limits deep within the massifs. The event’s DNA thrives in this balance between exhilaration at the beginning and self-reflection on the trails. Once immersed, it's a personal challenge against yourself to earn that coveted finisher status. Along the way, expect breathtaking views of sea and mountain vistas around every turn. Post-race recovery is equally rewarding. Indulge in local delicacies like piping hot Socca or savory Pissaladière at Forville market for the perfect fuel after a long ride. Alternatively, explore historical sites in Le Suquet or cool off by visiting the Gorges du Loup. So, are you ready to swap your tuxedo for bib shorts and become an adventurer on this iconic route? The start line is calling!
