News: British Gravel Champion jersey

Golazo Cycling, Bioracer and Canyon are excited to unveil the official 2021 British Gravel Champion jersey. The traditional red, white and blue stripes of British Champions jerseys are combined with a contemporary design reflecting the jagged layout of the gravel tracks in the King’s Forest, where the inaugural British Gravel Champions will be crowned on a thrilling racing weekend in September.

Ken Jones, Director Bioracer UK says “the setting for the inaugural British Gravel Championship in the King’s Forest was an immediate inspiration to design the new Championship Jersey and be a part of the world of gravel racing. Gravelling not only offers up challenges and freedom but has now established itself as an integral part of cycling, SEIZE THE DAY.”

Malcolm Smith, Golazo Cycling Director says “we’re stoked to be hosting the first-ever British Gravel Championships at the King’s Cup Gravel Festival and the Bioracer jersey perfectly captures the spirit of the event. The British Gravel Championships will be a thrilling event with an adventurous route and exciting racing, showcasing the very best the gravel cycling community has to offer.”

Aaron Budd, UK Head of Sales and Marketing at Canyon says “we’re excited to be partnered with the King’s Cup, supporting this exciting development in UK cycling racing at the inaugural British Gravel Championships this September. We can’t wait to see the best gravel specialists in the country battle it out for this incredible jersey!”

British Gravel Championships
The British Gravel Champions jerseys will be awarded across all Master’s age groups in both the Gravel Race and Time Trial. Both men’s and women’s hopefuls will race equal distances in both the Time Trial (18.1km) and the Gravel Race (78km and a shorter 52km for the 60+ age groups). Thrilling racing is guaranteed on the 100% off road routes through the King’s Forest. A mix of hard packed gravel, loose chipping gravel, grass, dirt and sand will demand the very best from each rider on their mission to become the inaugural British Gravel Champion.
