100% Pure Grade-A Gravel. Always Fresh, Never Frozen.

Welcome to Homegrown Gravel Adventure, where Georgia meets Alabama and some of the best gravel riding in the Southeast is served up with a healthy dose of Southern hospitality.

Located about an hour south of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in the small town of Franklin, Georgia, Homegrown takes riders across the state line and deep into the rolling hills, quiet backroads, and rugged countryside of western Georgia and eastern Alabama. Expect beautiful scenery, punchy climbs, fast descents, creek crossings, and miles upon miles of exceptional gravel.

Choose your adventure with four distances: 20, 40, 62, or 100 miles. Whether you're looking for a great day on the bike or testing yourself against one of the toughest gravel centuries in the Southeast, there's a route with your name on it. The 100-mile course packs approximately 8,500 feet of climbing, making it a serious challenge for even the strongest riders. And for the second year, we're putting some serious green on the line with a $10,000 prize purse for the 100-miler.

Come for the Race. Stay for the Weekend.

Homegrown isn't just a race. It's a full weekend built around gravel, good people, and a small Southern town that rolls out the welcome mat.

The festivities kick off on Friday with a shakeout ride, packet pickup, music, and a chance to catch up with old friends and make some new ones. Camping options make it easy to settle in for the weekend, with downtown Franklin serving as the center of it all.

On Saturday, the town comes alive. Beyond the start and finish lines, you'll find a bustling vendor market, live music, great food, and a finish-line celebration that keeps going long after the fastest riders have crossed the line. Bring the family, bring your friends, and plan to spend the day hangin. Registration and full course details are available through the official event website.
