Rode to Hell Gravel Bike Race 2026

Rode to Hell is a fall gravel bike race starting and finishing at Revel Run in Chelsea, Michigan. Riders head toward Hell, Michigan, and return. Distances of 24, 41, 71, or 100 miles are available, accommodating both shorter gravel efforts and long, demanding rides. The 100-mile option, back by popular demand, is part of The Boundless Race & Ride Company Grand Prix. Most of the course consists of gravel roads, with some paved sections. The route crosses Jackson, Washtenaw, Livingston, and Ingham Counties. The 24-, 71-, and 100-mile distances feature Open, Single Speed, Fat Bike, Clydesdale, Athena, and Tandem categories. The 41-mile race includes an Elite category. The event embraces its autumn timing with colorful scenery and a finish area offering food, beer, and live music.
