Organiser's Description

Robidoux Rendezvous: A Gravel Gathering at the Ingress of the American West! At least that's how we like to think of it... The roads we ride follow the same paths used by the Cheyenne, Oglala, and Arapaho Tribes and later, members of the Rocky Mountain Fur Company and travelers on the Oregon, California, and Mormon Trails. Don't believe us? See for yourself as you ride by literal wagon ruts, an original, disheveled covered wagon, and pioneer graves on the final stretch into town over Robidoux Pass. Today, these roads are traversed by farmers and ranchers who keep the world's food supply rolling!



Each entry receives support at our aid stations, access to pre and post-race activities, sponsor offers, a custom Robidoux Rendezvous event tee and swag, a post-ride beer if you're of age, a $10 food truck token, and live music after the race!



Starting and finishing at Five Rocks Amphitheater, the course descriptions below give a glimpse into what you can expect. Expect 90-100% gravel and "off-road" terrain on all courses. Courses are currently being redesigned for 2026, so stay tuned for updates!



Juniper - a 10-15 mile, beginner and kid-friendly recreational gravel route. Perfect for folks looking to enter the sport or just get to the party sooner! One aid station on course. E-bike category available.



Spruce - a 25-35 mile all terrain cycling ride with the beginner gravel enthusiast in mind. One aid station on course. E-bike category available. Place awards presented to top three men and women.



Cedar - 60-70 mile gravel route designed to challenge your inner gravel racer! A meeting between seasoned and intermediate riders looking for a fun and challenging day on the bike! Four aid stations on course. Awards to top 3 men and women along with age group awards.



Ponderosa - This is where the action happens! "The pointy end," if you will. 100-115 miles of mullet protocol! Business in front and party in the back if that's your jam. Four aid stations on course. Awards to top 3 men and women along with age group awards.



New for 2026! If pedaling isn't your jam, lace up and join us for a 5k fun run and enjoy all the same benefits of participating in the event! Just like all the bike routes, expect and prepare to run on uneven, gravel, and "off-road" terrain.
