This is for all of us.
Grassroots Gravel is for everyone. We believe cycling and the Grassroots Gravel experience should be accessible and welcoming regardless of anyone’s identity, pace, or financial situation. The Ride Together Grant provides an opportunity for registration & travel expense support as well as equipment support from our partners.

Who should apply
The Ride Together Grant exists so we can all enjoy this event and riding, regardless of financial situation. Folks who are out there riding and want to be here with us on October 12th, but can’t make the budget happen should apply. Folks who are putting miles in the saddle and can’t make important equipment and bike updates because of financial barriers should apply. Everyone’s got their own situation. We want cycling to be accessible to everyone, and we want everyone to feel welcome out there. If this sounds useful to you…apply! And keep riding.

How it’s funded
The Ride Together Grant is funded directly from our operating budget and equipment is provided by our partners State Bicycle Co., Flow Formulas, Pearl Izumi, Twisted Spoke CBD, and Squirt Cycling Products. Because we believe in the power of riding together and reaching new milestones. For everyone.
