Gravel Rush Summer Edition is scheduled for Saturday 28 November 2026 at Gaggle Inn Guest Lodge in Kroonstad, Free State. The Bike Hub listing puts the one-day gravel event on scenic farm roads, with three distance options: 30km, 87km and a 100-miler.
Three distances for different ambitions
That spread is the useful bit for our gravel women: the 30km route gives newer riders, returners and mixed-ability groups a friendlier way in, while the 87km and 100-mile options leave room for bigger endurance goals. Not every good day on gravel has to involve the same amount of suffering, and this format at least offers a sensible menu.
Fast-flowing farm-road gravel
The listing describes the riding as fast and flowing, with good-quality surfaces, very little corrugation and almost no sand. It also says food and non-alcoholic refreshments will be available at the venue after the ride.
The event page points riders to an external entry link, but the readable listing does not state women-specific fields, category prizes or a start list.
