Overview


At TransRockies, we don’t do anything halfway. And that includes pioneering the world’s greatest stage races.

Nearly 20 years ago we brought mountain bike stage racing to North America with the legendary 7-day TransRockies Challenge. Back then, our goal was to take riders on a grand adventure through spectacular landscapes. We designed a route using the most rugged, remote and beautiful terrain on the continent—the Canadian Rockies. Today, our renowned race organizers are turning their attention back to those same Rocky Mountains for another pioneering stage race we call the TransRockies Gravel Royale. And it has all the ingredients needed to become a legend in its own right.

So, come and grab a seat at the table. Go ‘all in’ on adventure with us, and we’ll deal you a hand you won’t soon forget! 

Race registration opens September 21, 2020 at 9am MST.

Leave your comfort zone in the dust, and up the ante with us next season!

Life’s too short to add just another gravel race to your calendar. At 4 days, 375km and 7000m in elevation gain, the TransRockies Gravel Royale is truly in a league of its own.

The views are endless, and the hills are teeming with wildlife. It’s an unforgettable journey of adventure, camaraderie and of course, bragging rights! It’s a friendly competition that winds its way through terrain tailor-made for testing limits and leaving racers in awe of their own abilities. 

Days are spent with friends, racing past rugged mountain peaks, and over high mountain passes. Evenings are a chance to make new friends, and trade stories with old ones. All while enjoying the unique character of our host communities.

Whether you’re playing for keeps, or just for the fun of it, on an adventure like this, everyone’s a winner! 

There are a lot of reasons why the TransRockies Gravel Royale should be on your calendar next season! Check out the pages below for just a few of them.

Our team is ready to stack the deck in your favour

We’re here to support you every step of the way. Right from race registration to the finish line and beyond.

Here’s how it works. You register for the TransRockies Gravel Royale, train (beer is a great recovery drink, right?), show up on day one, race, make new friends, cross the finish line, then remember the experience for the rest of your life. That’s it! We’ll take care of the rest, so you can concentrate on the things that really matter. That’s what we do, and we’ve gotten pretty good at it over the last two decades.

We set up tents, cook the food, provide medical support, and more. That’s all included in the price of registration, but it doesn’t have to end there. We want your time with us to be as comfortable as possible. So why not check out our list of reasonably priced add-ons and extras—from single-occupancy tents to massages to mechanic services? You can find them all here.

Can’t commit to the full 4-day Gravel Royale?

No problem. We want you to go ‘all in’ on adventure with us, and that can mean something different to everyone. That’s why we’ve put together a few options: 

  • A 2-day Ante Up experience

  • A 3-day E-Bike Poker Ride

  • The Fair Deal Family Mountain Bike Challenge on Stage 2 at Nipika
