Millstream Gravel Fondo

Experience the inaugural Millstream Gravel Cup, set to captivate both seasoned gravel enthusiasts and newcomers alike over two action-packed days. The weekend kicks off on Sunday, September 6 with the Iowa Gravel Time Trial Championship at 9:00 AM, challenging participants with a course that weaves through rolling terrain before tackling punchy climbs just northeast of Amana. On Monday, September 7, the Iowa Gravel Road Race Championship awaits, starting sharp and early at 9:00 AM.

The course promises breathtaking views that will leave participants in awe, offering a blend of picturesque landscapes and technical challenges sure to test even the most experienced gravel riders. Full details on the exact route are forthcoming, so stay tuned for more information as race day approaches.
Fuel up and refuel with all the amenities provided at Millstream Brewery in Amana, Iowa—your home base throughout the weekend. After you've tackled the hills or cruised through the countryside, unwind and celebrate your achievements—or simply enjoy a well-deserved break—with live music performances and an extensive beer festival. The post-race festivities continue late into the evening, ensuring there's something for everyone to look forward to.
