We would love for you to join us for our 2nd Annual Karl Becker Gravel Challenge

Karl Becker was a character, a character with a huge passion for cycling. He left us too soon, we weren’t ready for his passing. We created the Karl Becker Gravel Challenge in his honor, and as a way that we could share some of Karl’s passions with you. Karl was a passionate reader, music lover, beer enthusiast, bike shop owner, day of the dead collector, and accomplished cyclist.

We want to welcome you to the 2nd Annual Karl Becker Gravel Challenge on October 11th in Joneseburg, MIssouri. Jonesburg is roughly in between Columbia, Missouri and St. Louis, Missouri. The course is quite fast and almost completely on gravel roads. Entry fee is $45 dollars for the men, and $22.50 for woman and juniors.

We’ll be updating this page as we receive further details. GPS of both routes will be up soon.

Calendar

Saturday Morning Ride

Saturday Morning Road Ride/Saint Louis Cycling Club Ride
Our Saturday Morning Road Rides are managed by our partners, the Saint Louis Cycling Club.  We meet at 10:00am at the Kirkwood Kaldi's located at 120 S Kirkwood Rd, Kirkwood, MO 63122.  Should the weather be questionable, we'll most likely call the ride off.  If you would like to be added to the Group Chat for the up to the minute information on ride cancellations, enter your contact information above and we will add you to the Group Text.

Average moving pace of approximately 18mph. No drop ride.

Sunday Morning Long Ride*

We generally decide on Saturday's Ride, what the group ride for Sunday may be.  Some days it's gravel, other days it's more road riding, and some days it's just sipping coffee at Kaldi's.

*We like to mix it up with the Sunday rides, so be prepared for a slightly different route from time to time.*

Average moving pace of around 17mph. No drop ride.

Billy Goat Thursday Night Throwdown

Wanna go fast?? This ride does. Average moving pace of over 20mph. This is a drop ride.

Thursday Throwdowns to resume on March 15th, 2023

Wheels down at 6pm.
