More miles, less hassle.

When you’re loading up for a weekend of riding, the NV 2.0 from Küat Racks is ready to do the heavy lifting, so you can just load up, roll out, and get to the good part.

Küat has your rack and your back.

Introducing... Rockford Grange 🤩

A brand-new stop at mile 75 of the Big Sugar Gravel 100-mile course, Rockford Grange is more than just an aid station.

This beautiful property is surrounded by rolling hills, lakes, and plenty of wildlife — including elk, deer, and even ostriches!

On race day, it’s your second and final aid station, complete with neutral support and a chance to meet up with your crew.

Refuel, enjoy the views, then send it to the finish 🤘

These bluffs aren’t bluffing…

At mile 37 of the Big Sugar Gravel 100, the course takes a turn toward one of its most iconic sections.

Just outside Pineville, Missouri, the Bluffs deliver epic views of the Ozarks as you make your way into Checkpoint #1.

It’s beautiful. It’s quiet. And for a moment, you might forget you still have 63 miles to go.

Three things we’re big on: cycling, community, and coffee. ☕️✅

We’re proud to have Airship Coffee fueling our riders and creating welcoming spaces for cyclists throughout race week.

Coming to NWA in October? Make sure to stop by (at least) one of their locations and grab a cup.

Remember, when in doubt: caffeinate, pedal, repeat 🔁
