Frequently asked questions

What types of cycling events are there?
Major categories include road races, gran fondos (mass-start long rides), gravel races (mixed surface), mountain bike races, century rides (100 miles), and criteriums. RACE lists events across all categories.
What is gravel racing?
Gravel racing takes place on unpaved roads using drop-bar bikes with wide tires. It is the fastest-growing segment of cycling. Marquee events include Unbound Gravel, SBT GRVL, and Belgian Waffle Ride.
What is a gran fondo?
A gran fondo is a long-distance mass-participation cycling event, typically 60-100+ miles. Unlike road races, gran fondos welcome riders of all levels. Popular US gran fondos include Gran Fondo Hincapie and GFNY New York.
How long is a century ride?
A century ride is 100 miles. A metric century is 100 kilometers (62 miles). Both are popular cycling milestones. Many organized century rides offer multiple distance options and full support with aid stations.
