Known colloquially as the “amuse bouche” of Yukon Gravel cycling events, the Gritty COG represents the most unique inter-generational bike riding and racing format on planet earth. COG stands for Clash of Generations and it’s designed to settle the age-old question, “Which is the superior cycling demographic?” Is it the older, crusty collection of geriatric gear-grinders? Or the young, insufferably optimistic and bright-eyed, as yet ripened pedal-pushers?Using a proprietary algorithm that even the likes of Elon Zuckerman can’t crack, Velonorth will determine which age category will take home the coveted, Picasso-inspired Gritty COG trophy.

The Short Course (40km, 12pm start) route includes Copper Haul Road, a selection of the finest ski trails through Mt. MacIntyre – including sections of the 10k, Sewyns, Copper – and some short sections of flowy single track.
The Long Course (65km, 11am start) route adds a relaxing jaunt up to Fish Lake and back on Fish Lake Road before rejoining the Short Course route through Mt. MacIntyre. 1000m elevation.
BIKE CHOICE?
Whatever you have. Gravel bikes, mountain bikes, fat bikes - we even see the occasional foolhardy road bike. No matter what kind of bike you ride, at some points it’ll be the exact right kind, at others, it’ll definitely be all kinds of wrong. (WARNING: road bike will definitely be more wrong than right, proceed with extreme caution)
