About this Event
EL PASO – TIMBERON GRAVEL RIDE
Join us for an epic gravel adventure from El Paso to Timberon, a challenging and scenic ride through the beautiful backroads of southern New Mexico.
This route covers 117 km (72.7 miles) with 1,145 meters of elevation gain, taking riders from the desert terrain of El Paso up into the mountains near Timberon. Expect a mix of gravel roads, long steady climbs, and incredible views, making this a true test of endurance and adventure spirit.
We will meet at La Wheela Bicycle Place at 6:30 AM and then drive together to the starting point. The official ride start will be at 7:00 AM.
Along the route, we will have a support station at kilometer 70, where riders will find energy gels, water, and isotonic drinks to help refuel for the final section of the ride.
⚠️ Important logistics:
Each participant is responsible for arranging their own transportation from Timberon back to El Paso. We strongly recommend coordinating a support vehicle or ride back before the event.
