Focal Events was formed alongside creating the UK’s first and largest gravel event, the Dirty Reiver, back in 2016. The Team shared a vision for how events should focus on a positive experience in every aspect – from sign on to finish line and beyond
Focal Events can also bring this same attention to
generating events for brands, businesses and charities
Rider Experience is valued above all else
The Dirty Reiver 200 (200km), Dirty One Thirty (130km) and the 65km routes are off road cycling challenges based on the Gravel Grinder format found predominantly in the mid west of America. This has now become the largest Gravel Event in Europe.
Grinduro is not just a bike race. It’s a celebration of cycling with as much emphasis on the fun as the ride, with excellent food, an impressive display of handmade bikes, live music, camping and a festival atmosphere.
The event is not a race but more a sociable challenge. We are branding this event ‘Self Supported with benefits’ as it really does not conform to any current event format.
