JERSEY GRAVEL DEUX
Come For The Roads. Stay For The People.
Jersey Gravel Deux is a Gran Fondo experience that takes you across the renowned unpaved roads of the Bedminster area and flows into the best dirt roads and trails Somerset, Morris and Hunterdon Counties have to offer.
Race the timed segments or simply ride your ride. Between segments, the clock stops. Regroup with friends, soak in the scenery, and refuel at stocked aid stations with pancakes, real maple syrup, pierogies and more.
Some come to race. Others for the miles, the roads and the camaraderie. There's no wrong way to ride Jersey Gravel.
Since 2018, the Jersey Gravel Grinder has brought riders together for one of New Jersey's signature gravel experiences. Deux is Edition XIII.
Choose your distance. Ride it your way.
From The Riders
"I came alone and left with four new riding buddies. The pancake stop alone is worth the entry."
"Best supported gravel event I have done in the Northeast. The volunteers treat you like family."
"I raced the segments hard, then soft-pedaled between them telling stories. Best of both worlds."
Event History
From humble beginnings with 65 riders, the event has grown in popularity with hundreds of riders now attending the spring and fall editions.
The original spring edition was so well loved that riders kept asking for a second helping of Jersey Gravel in the fall. That is how The Deux was born.
Backed by 10+ years of producing endurance events. Deux is Edition XIII.

New To Gravel? You're Welcome Here.
You do not have to be an elite racer to belong at Jersey Gravel Deux. The neutral portions between segments exist so you can recover, regroup and ride with people, not away from them. Soul at 35 miles is genuinely approachable for a first gravel event. Adventure at 65 is the sweet spot for most riders who ride regularly. Mega at 100 is the serious challenge if you want one.
Aid stations are stocked, the course is marked, support is on the road, and nobody gets left out there. Ride your ride.

Gran Fondo With Timed Segments
Your day is scored on the combined time of the timed segments, not total ride time. Clear signage marks the Approach, Start and End of each segment, so you know exactly when to hammer and when to soft-pedal and chat. Racing them is entirely optional.
GPS Segment Timing
Segment times are captured by GPS through a dedicated timing app that riders will download before race day. We are finalizing the platform now and will post the app details and setup instructions here and by email. Timed segment locations will be shared with registered riders close to the event. Segments are short and punchy, not long grinds.
Marked & Mapped
Arrow signs at every turn plus free access to our RideWithGPS event page with downloadable FIT and GPX files and visual and audio cues.
