Gravel, farm roads, dirt paths, and singletrack… You can ride all that in 1 day right here in Berks county!
This ride is all about the Social. We start and finish at the Garber's Barn with friends, good food & tasty beverages.
This isn't your typical “gravel grinder” because this region of PA has a wide range of terrain including gravel, trails, quieter paved roads, and shortcuts through the woods to have some fun on! However, if you're not into riding singletrack with drop bars we can provide an option to get around that section.
Barn Gravel is not a race: It is a great time with good people and enough challenging terrain to make you earn some good food & drink. Last year the event got a little warm, and the team is working to bring back the “classic” Barn Gravel vibe in 2026, and possibly switching up the route (sneak peek).
The full route is planned to be around 60-miles and include a wide variety of “gravel” to take on at a casual, or excited, pace. A shorter option will also be available.
There will be 1-2 Aid Stations, that will also include some barn-games and feats of strength to add to the day's antics.
Schedule:
-
Arrive between 7:30 and 8:30
-
Ride-Roll Out between 9:00-9:30
-
Finish Up between 2:00-4:00
-
Hang Out as long as you like!
Plan to stick around after for the Barn Party!
We'll finish the day with beers, tasty food, music, bonfire, and post-ride camaraderie in the Garber's Barn. Bring your lawn chair and favorite koozie for this part — the after-ride party has a history of turning out to be better than the ride party.
Barn Gravel supports Helping Harvest, and we will ask every participant to bring a food item or cash donation during registration to support local hunger efforts and farmers.
