RegisterThe Gravel Unravel Experience
Gravel Unravel is an endurance gravel bicycling series on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. This series is brought to you by a partnership between Peninsula Adventure Sports and La Vogue Cyclery This event is designed for those who wish to challenge their physical abilities to the maximum while enjoying the lushness of Olympic National Forest. Participants can ride short (23-32 miles), medium (46-55 miles), or long (69-80 miles) distances on majority gravel courses (percent varies by race/distance) while enjoying towering evergreens and vivid green moss and ferns. There are both competitive and non-competitive Gran Fondo style divisions, and all are welcome to give the Gravel Unravel a try on their own terms.
We are grateful to our Series Sponsor Eleven Winery for making Gravel Unravel happen again for 2026! Eleven Winery has been with us since year one of Gravel Unravel, and we thank they for their unwavering support.
Racing categories are Open, Open Masters (45+), Open Super Masters (60+), Non-Binary, Womens Open, Womens Masters (45+), Womens Super Masters (60+), Juniors (under 18), and Singlespeed. The top three overall winners (Men, Women, and More) in each distance will receive an award / podium.
You can also Gravel Unravel in the non-competitive Gran Fondo style for the Short and Medium Courses. Loosely translated from Italian as “the big challenge”, think of it as more of a group ride or tour. Set your own goal, be it to go fast or ride for fun, or heck just to finish! E-bikes are allowed in the non-competitive ride as a separate category.
Bon Jon Pass Out
The village of Quilcene is perfectly placed at the base of the Olympic Mountains, and along Quilcene Bay. This town is synonymous with hospitality, and especially welcoming are the great folks at Worthington Park, where we will be based for the day. A portion of race proceeds will support the Quilcene Museum/Worthington Park and also to Count me in for Quilcene, both local non-profit organizations.
After leaving Worthington Park, riders head for their first challenge – Bon Jon Pass. Luckily June is when the wild rhododendrons are in full bloom. Spotlighted against the deep green background of the forest, the blooms are sure to brighten up what might seem like an endless ascent. After Bon Jon Pass, enjoy the views and ridges, returning via Lords Lake Loop. Well, except the long course riders – they get to climb Bon Jon again!
