Gravel Fireside Chat

  • BFF Bikes 2056 North Damen Avenue Chicago, IL, 60647 United States (map)

Calling all gravel enthusiasts! From the pros to those who are gravel-curious: join us for an evening around the (metaphorical) bonfire to chat about all things gravel. Specifically, we’ll be highlighting the Rough Road 100 at this event! We will have an array of our best female gravelers to answer all of your question.

In addition to highlighting the RR100, we will talk about other events coming up and help answer each other’s questions on specific races. A great opportunity to find out about other races or ask questions about a race you are considering.

Not only is it free, but we will also have prizes to raffle off (including a free entry to RR100 😮)!!! So stop by for a cozy evening of snacks and beverages while learning and having fun!

About Rough Road 100

This is an ALL inclusive event, we want you to try something new, challenge yourself, find like minded folks and have a whole lot of FUN doing it!!

Conceived in 2014, the Rough Road 100 is a Spring Classic inspired road/gravel bike event. From the beginning we wanted to create a community of welcoming cyclists and become a Midwest yearly staple for cyclists of all varieties. Distances of 60 and 40 miles make coming out of a Winter slumber a great opportunity to stretch your legs and start your cycling season off right! Whether that includes a bunch of races or rides we want you, and your friends, out here to share these roads and our hometown.

Early April in the Midwest is always a weather gamble; snow, rain, wind, sunny, balmy, it's part of the fun and part of the challenge to experience that camaraderie with those who toed the line!

RSVP is NOT required, but it will help us know how many people to expect, so please register below if you are at all interested in joining us! 😊
