A renewed calendar, new routes, and an even more comprehensive format mark the start of a new season for the Jeroboam Gravel Series. A project that continues to grow, combining adventure, bikepacking, and ultra-endurance within an increasingly solid international platform.
Founded in 2017 and organized by Reverb Cycling, the Jeroboam Gravel Series interprets Gravel as a means to explore and access local territories, while retaining the endurance aspect and competitive dimension that have gained popularity worldwide in recent years. The format is designed to accommodate a wide range of participants, from beginners to the most experienced athletes, offering distances and formats adapted to each approach.
The 2026 program includes three main events: two in Bergamo, the historic home of the series, and an international stage in Mallorca, which will bring the Jeroboam spirit to one of the most iconic Mediterranean destinations.
Bergamo: The Heart and Soul of the Event
The first Bergamo event is scheduled for July 18, 2026, and offers three different distances.
The Jeroboam 75 km route is accessible to most cyclists and features simple Gravel sections and secondary roads. Ideal for those seeking an experience without technical difficulties, it includes a mid-course checkpoint at Giangi’s Bike in Erbusco, a long-standing partner of the event.
The intermediate distance, the Jeroboam 150 km, crosses some of the most fascinating places in the Bergamo region. With approximately 2700 m of elevation gain, the route winds between the Imagna, Brembana, and Seriana valleys, offering a succession of varied landscapes and climbs emblematic of the local cycling tradition.
For those seeking the ultimate challenge, the Jeroboam 600 km ultra-endurance event is on the program. It involves covering 600 km with 17000 m of elevation gain. Participants must be completely self-sufficient and have a maximum of 80 hours to complete the course, limited to a restricted number of registrants. The route extends to Adamello and Passo del Tremalzo before returning to the city, and progress can be followed in real-time thanks to a live tracking system.
The nerve center will once again be the Santini Village, Via Zanica. Open on July 17 and 18, it will host bib collection, an expo area, music, catering, and official briefings for the different distances.
The second Bergamo event, in a 300 km bikepacking format, will take place on September 26–27, 2026. The Jeroboam, which has attracted many ultra-athletes over the years, is offered over two days with a total elevation gain of approximately 7500 m. Nights in a refuge or tent at the intermediate point make the bikepacking experience “light,” fluid, and accessible, even for cyclists without ultra-endurance experience.
Mallorca: The One-Day Challenge
In November 2026 (date to be confirmed), the series will move to Mallorca for a one-day endurance event. The 300 km route, with approximately 3000 m of elevation gain, follows the island’s Gravel perimeter and is designed to be a fast and continuous ride from start to finish.
An Exciting New Season
The Jeroboam Gravel Series 2026 are supported by a network of established partners, including main sponsors 3T and Santini, as well as Limar, Northwave, Selle San Marco, Miss Grape, and Reverb.
