Gravel and Tar is back for its sixth year in 2021 with the Manawatū Cycling Spree which promises to be a great weekend for everyone.
The Greasy Chain Charitable Trust will hold a Wellington Anniversary weekend of cycling-related activities with the Gravel and Tar race starting in Feilding on January 23.
The weekend will start Friday afternoon/early evening on January 22 with a Criterium, known as a Crit, that will focus on junior cyclists' run around the Railway Reserve.
During this time, there'll also be a mountain bike event on the reserve, so a lot to see in one place.
January 23, Feilding will welcome riders at the start of the professional men's and women's Gravel and Tar events, plus the amateurs in the Westpac Slicks and Stones.
