From the organizers of the TranSierra Norte, TransGravel is a one-of-a-kind gravel stage race in Oaxaca City, Mexico…
Introducing TransGravel 2024, from the creators of TranSierra Norte…
Over the past 10+ years, we have explored the deep forests in the Sierra Norte of Oaxaca, Mexico. In 2017, we pioneered with TranSierra Norte, the first International Mountain Bike Adventure Race in Oaxaca, Mexico. After developing riding areas such as “Ixtepeji”, “Benito Juarez” and “Etla”, and launching 6 international MTB races, Oaxaca is now one of the most popular Mountain Bike destinations in North America.
This year we decided to launch something different, but still true to our essence and values. Taking place near Oaxaca City, Mexico. TransGravel is a new, One-Of-A-Kind bike race that combines the physical challenge of gravel riding with the vibrant culture of Oaxaca. A celebration of cycling that combines competition with adventure, culture, gastronomy, and camaraderie.
Gravel is the new enduro!
Inspired by our world-famous event (TranSierra Norte) the race format will be similar to an Enduro Mountain Bike race. The event will not focus solely on total lap time, but rather on the timed stages per day of racing, Each will last between five to ten minutes. The timed stages will add a dash of strategy and excitement to the event. If there is something we have learned over the last 10+ years, it’s the power of community. The race format allows socializing and riding along with cyclists from all over the world in the transfers where the speed won’t count, but the good times will.
