Hundreds of cyclists to swarm Ballinrobe for Epic Gravel Adventure in Mayo.

Ballinrobe will come alive this Sunday morning as cyclists from every corner of Ireland descend on the town for a one-of-a-kind gravel cycling challenge. From rugged bog roads to winding boreens, this thrilling event will push riders to test their skill and stamina against the wild beauty of the west.

This is no ordinary spin. The course features a spectacular loop around Lough Carra and the Partry Mountains, blending breath taking scenery with a true taste of adventure.

Cyclists will tackle an exciting variety of gravel terrains while soaking up views that stretch from shimmering lake shores to ancient pilgrim paths.

Route highlights include the Bowers Walk, Srah, Killawalia, Clogher, and Moorehall loop walks, with a return to Ballinrobe via the Lost Treasure Trail.

Each section offers its own distinctive character and history, following tracks once travelled long before modern roads existed – and now reborn as a playground for Ireland’s boldest off-road riders, with some high profile riders attending, it's also a great opportunity to get pictures and mingle with Ireland's best cycling talent.

The action begins at 9:45am sharp outside Marrey Bikes, Ballinrobe, with the first riders expected to roll back into town at Johnno’s Bar from 1pm onwards, where a warm welcome and lively atmosphere await.
