GravelMan Series

Returning to the very essence of cycling on legendary routes, that's exactly what GravelMan offers you. You ride just to breathe, feel the road and terrain under your wheels, and rediscover the simple pleasure of moving forward... without any pressure other than the one you choose (and sometimes that of your derailleur!). The GravelMan routes are road bike or gravel routes ranging from 60 to 500 km 🚵, all over France 🇫🇷, designed to give you a true adventure. No assistance: you manage your food, repairs, and navigation. No support vehicle, no safety net, just you and your desire to go further 🌍. And that's exactly what makes the experience unique: you come away with the real sensation of living the challenge... and sometimes feeling every muscle you didn’t know you had!

But beyond the kilometers and the challenge 🎯, it is the people and the conviviality that remain etched in memories. On the GravelMan Series, you will meet people, maybe share a room depending on your race format, and experience great moments of conviviality, like only a race of this kind can create. You will feel emotion at the finish line, fatigue after a difficult climb, in the rain or fog... to see your face light up with joy when you earn the finisher medal 🏅. You will create beautiful memories and feel the pride of having gone to your limits. These moments of exchange and solidarity are at the heart of the GravelMan experience.

The concept was created by Stéven Le Hyaric, a former Elite cyclist and true adventurer in search of sporting... and human adventures. After cycling 150,000 km, spending 120 days in Nepal among the world's largest mountains, completing 2 Ironmans, crossing France and Europe by bike 🇪🇺, Stéven decided to take on the craziest challenges: crossing the Nepali Himalayas combining cycling and mountaineering via the Great Himalaya Trail. That is to say, 2,000 km with 90,000 m of elevation gain, and then setting a world record between Paris and Dakar of 5,600 km in just 20 days 😮. And now, you can follow in his footsteps with the GravelMan!

Here, the challenge is not the time or the ranking: the GravelMan is not a race, it's a human adventure... with a touch of madness! ✨ The objective? To surpass yourself (or at least avoid getting stuck in the mud), to reconnect with yourself and with nature, and to share strong moments with other cyclists: laughs after hours of pedaling, struggles that are still talked about over a coffee ☕️, and memories that are never forgotten 📖. That's the GravelMan spirit: authentic, free, human... and a little crazy.

GravelMan is not just a challenge: it’s a suspended moment, a shared adventure, a parenthesis where you rediscover the true meaning of cycling 🚴. So... ready to blaze your own path, feel the wind in your hair, laugh, suffer a little... and come back with stories you'll tell for 10 years? 😁
