LOWELL CLASSIC GRAVEL ROAD RACE -> MICHIGAN GRAVEL RACE SERIES SEASON FINALE & AWARDS

About the Event

The annual Lowell Classic Gravel Road Race invites cyclists to experience the challenging yet scenic routes of Michigan's countryside. Participants must use their age as of December 31, 2026, for category selection and adhere to a strict pace requirement: an average speed of at least 15 mph is mandatory throughout the grueling 54-mile journey.
Race organizers provide packet pickup services on Saturday morning from 7:15 am to 9:30 am inside the lodge. Early birds can secure their packages between 7:15 and 7:45 am, while others have until 9:30 am for convenient access to race materials.
The mass start is scheduled at 8:00 am sharp, ensuring a competitive atmosphere from the outset. Drafting is permitted in this event, with aerobars allowed exclusively for those participating in the Rogue 100 category. However, it's important to note that this course remains unsupported and unmarked; racers are entirely responsible for their navigation.
Support vehicles are welcome on the route, but neutral support must be provided as well. For instance, if you bring water out along the course, make sure to offer it to any rider in need. Racers are encouraged to share tracking files via platforms such as Strava or Garmin so that completion can be verified post-race.
The race organizers reserve the right to delay or cancel the event due to adverse weather conditions or unsafe road conditions at their sole discretion. Participants should prepare for potential changes and understand there will be no refunds or deferrals available in case of cancellation.
Safety is paramount, with ANSI/Snell approved bicycle helmets required by all participants. The route involves an open-road environment where cyclists must adhere strictly to Michigan's Vehicle Code and cycling rules, including stopping at stop signs, yielding the right-of-way, staying within lane limits, and riding no more than two abreast.
Electronic bicycles (e-bikes) and recumbent bikes are not permitted in this event. Cyclists should prioritize their safety and that of others on the road to ensure a successful race experience.
Ride safely and enjoy the challenging yet rewarding journey through Michigan's picturesque landscapes!
