Michigan Mountain Mayhem “Gravel Grinder”
The Gravel Grinder will be a gravel road race like nothing you could have imagined. This event will always be the first Saturday in October (October 7th, 2017 ) and is limited to 2000 riders. You can expect a huge purse of $12,300 as well as some of the fastest racers in the Country.
