A gravel event for everyone
After a tremendous success in 2023, the worldwide gravel event REBOUND is back again. On Saturday, June 1st, starting at 6:00 AM, you can join this exciting cycling experience. With distances for every taste and level, participants can choose between 15 miles (25 km), 25 miles (40 km), 50 miles (80 km), 100 miles (160 km), or 200 miles (320 km). Each rider selects their own starting point and plan their own gravel route, providing the freedom to create a personal and unique experience. There are no fees to participate in REBOUND and no timing, so you can ride at your own pace and enjoy the journey, unless you want to challenge yourself or maybe set a personal record.
"This is equivalent to cycling around the Earth 192 times, as the Earth's circumference is approximately 40,075 km."
No matter how you choose to participate, REBOUND is a unique opportunity to be part of something bigger. You become part of a global community of cyclists who share the same passion for gravel riding, and every mile you ride contributes to the overall distance and helps achieve the ambitious 2024 goal of 10,000,000 gravel miles (16.1 million km) worldwide. Last year, over 300,000 riders participated, collectively cycling an impressive 7,707,377 km. This is equivalent to cycling around the Earth 192 times as Earth's circumference is approximately 40,075 km. It’s truly remarkable.
