Come together and ride the Divide!” You are invited to ride the inaugural planning year with us. We are looking at a highly organized “Group Ride” that will build interest and give us feedback for becoming a “race” in October of 2027. The
100K Douglas Divide gravel route has been ridden, explored, and mapped over the past several years. The route is safe, remote, and rustic. In our planning and riding conversations, we know the Douglas Divide is and will be an amazing experience for everyone.

The ride will depart and conclude at the Douglas County Bird Sanctuary that is located within minutes of Hwy 53 between Solon Springs and Gordon WI. The Bird Sanctuary has water, toilets, and good parking. When you complete your
ride there will be food available on site (Brats, Baked Beans) for riders andfamilies with a suggested donation.

NOTE: The ride will be limited to the first 50 riders that RSVP - [email protected]

We break down the similarities, differences, and what it could mean for the future of gravel in the region.
