VNXCAY Gravel Samplers

Gravel Group Rides Are Back!

Join us on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month, starting June 30, as we explore the wide spectrum of mixed-surface riding Whitehorse has to offer. Think of these rides as a tasting menu for Yukon gravel riding: small portions, varied flavours, and the occasional surprise ingredient.

Rides will start at 7:00 PM and aim for approximately two hours. Each ride will feature a different route and challenge level. We'll post any updates on our social channels (Facebook, Instagram, and Strava) ahead of time so you can decide whether the evening's adventure aligns with your goals, abilities, and tolerance for questionable terrain.

These are social, no-drop rides. The objective is to explore, chat, and enjoy riding bikes with other humans.

A VeloNorth membership or CAY Community Membership is required. If you're new and curious, come give it a try before signing up—just let us know you're coming.
