A gravel day that insists it is not a race. Roughly 160km through the ranch country around Bakersfield, California, stitched from dirt roads, singletrack, creek crossings and deliberately silly hike-a-bike obstacles.
The route
The Full Cobble runs about 160km (100mi) with roughly 1,500m of climbing across gravel, dirt ranch roads, singletrack, creek crossings and hike-a-bike obstacles, with a shorter Half Cobble option. It's a cult, community-scale field of around 561 riders, most taking 8 to 10 hours or more.
Mid-February, Bakersfield
Highs around 17°C and lows around 4°C, but it has dropped to -3°C. Rain on 21% of days. Pack for the cold end, not the average.
