Flamme Rouge have opened entries for a new gravel ride, The Gravelo this August.
Taking place on Saturday 24 August from the Velo Barn Cafe in Westerham, Kent, the 80km course will lead riders on "an unforgettable adventure through the rolling hills and off road tracks 'n' trails of the North Downs and Kent countryside."
Entrants will be joined along the way by two cycling legends courtesy of CAMS cycling - Olympic champion Ed Clancy and gravel racer Jesse Yates.
The event will feature a coffee stop at the cafe garden at Tablehurst Farm, Forest Row where riders can purchase coffee, cakes, pastries and refill bidons amid a beautiful setting.
The course is unmarked, with riders using the supplied GPX file to navigate.
Back at the Velo Barn there will be a DJ and BBQ to welcome riders home.
Just 100 places are available, with the £30 entry fee including a burger and beer at the finish.
