This is an Open Course and all riders should follow the rules of the road.
MGG SUPPORTS LOCAL CHARITIES
A portion of event proceeds will be going to charities in the region including CT Cycling Advancement Program (CCAP).
EVENT SWAG
Custom Eastern Gravel Series Sock Guy Socks & Water Bottle included with registration.
POST RACE PARTY
Post race party with Live Music will feature the much loved hot food truck that we hired last year serving tacos & rice bowls. We're also bringing back the Ice Cream truck & cold N.A. Beer from our friends at Athletic Brewing Company.
TIRE RECOMMENDATIONS
Our tire recommendation is a tire like Panaracer GravelKing SK 38mm or 40 mm. The unpaved sections have a wide mix of surfaces and can get pretty rocky - especially for the additional miles in the MEGA route. We do not recommend racing with a traditional road bike and/or slick tires.
VOLUNTEERS
We'd greatly appreciate it if friends or family members could help out for a few hours at one of the aid stations. All volunteers will get one of our JGG event shirts and free entry into the post race awards party with food & drinks. They can sign up right here on BikeReg. (We'd welcome local non-profit groups to run an aid station as a fundraiser as well).
