Following on from our Graveloroo Gr8 Gravel Century, our next Gr8 Gravel event is coming in just over a week on June 23 - Gr8 Gravel Goombungee.

If you’d like to do some distance but with a bit less climbing then this is the ride for you - 83km of rolling countryside and less than 900m of total elevation. A morning loop of 52km with just under 500m elevation gain returning back to Goombungee to grab a bite to eat and refuel and then a 31km loop with nearly 400m elevation gain.

We are looking forward to having you join us on these rides that will give you an awesome opportunity to experience the fantastic gravel roads of Queensland's Northern Downs in great company. You will have the ability to ride all or part of the routes knowing that you will still have the support vehicle there for water, snacks and assistance if you need it.

You will be provided the GPX files of the routes (to load into your navigation app/device of choice) as well as receive a printed guide to the route so you can complete the route at your own pace.

Check out the Gr8 Gravel Rides on our website for more information and we look forward to seeing you out here to get your own dose of Gr8 Gravel Goodness 😎🚵🦘

Over on our Graveloroo page, we're asking if you wonder if the bike you are riding is not the right size for you?
As you would all know, bike fit is crucial to your comfort, prevention of injuries and getting maximum when you are out on a ride. Check out our latest blog post ( https://veloroo.com/what-is-a-gravel-bike-part-3-geometry-and-terms/ ) for a guide to the terms and measurements that will help you ask the right questions when you are getting fitted to your bike.
Oh, and if you see either of these riders out on the roads, tell them to hop on down to their local bike store for either a proper fitting or a new bike 😁🚵🦘

We were very pleased to be able to support Cash Converters with their Tour de Cashies to raise funds for riders participating in the 2024 Hawaiian Ride for Youth supporting Youth Focus. We delivered two of our spin bikes to the Qld Head Office and the riders not only reached but apparently exceeded the 700km target 😀
Congratulations to all involved 🙌

Well friends, as we wrap up another huge year, we are preparing for a full and exciting 2024. We'll be carefully transporting a van load of bikes to the Santos Tour Down Under in two weeks with the VeloRooBer, continuing to expand our new multi-surface rides with the Graveloroo brand we launched this year and heading back to France in the second half of 2024 to soak up more wonderful French countryside.
