Organiser's description

The Dirty Kitten Gravel Race is an adventure gravel race on private farm roads in Rapidan, VA.

Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Locust Hill Farm & Preserve encompasses over 5,000 continuous acres of privately-owned land with approximately 20 miles of scenic farm roads. The course explores this historic farm on gravel & dirt roads that run along the Robinson River, pass serene creeks and ponds, weave through open fields, and cross wooded forest trails. This area is a gravel & adventure cycling enthusiasts dream as well as a beautiful wildlife haven.

The DIRTY KITTEN is co-hosted by Dirty Kitten Productions and local equestrian group, Bull Run Hunt. It serves as a partial fundraiser for our women's "off-road" cycling team (Dirty Kitten Racing) and helps to raise money for local non-profit organizations in the surrounding area.

Your entry fee includes an amazing adventure-gravel experience, official start/finish

& lap timing, full event results, partial ride support, on-course aid stations (2), post-ride food and beverages, commemorative event swag, and payout or merchandise prizes for the top 3-5 finishers in each category/field provided by our generous event sponsors.

There are off-site camping options available for Friday & Saturday (at an additional cost).
