Dirty Winter Series Gribskov

Dirty Series brings winter gravel racing to North Zealand, and its 26/27 season opens in the forests of Gribskov South. The whole field starts together in a mass start after a neutral rollout behind a lead rider, then races for around an hour and a half on a fully marked circuit, with the number of laps announced on the day.

The organiser started out with a small series of gravel races and now runs gravel, criterium and long road formats under the Dirty banner. Its team says it rides, adjusts and refines every course until it flows, works with the forests, backroads and overlooked terrain already there, and cares as much about the time before and after the race as the race itself.

Gravel, MTB and cyclocross bikes are all welcome. Expect traffic marshals, professional timing, elite and age group podiums, an overall series trophy and, new this winter, a team competition, with food and drinks for everyone at the Teglovnen expo near Hillerød once the racing is done.
