Celebrate the people who make gravel better.

Gravel is more than miles, finish lines, and race results. It’s the people who wait, encourage, show up, and help others believe they belong. Dirt Squad and Hollywood Racks are teaming up to recognize one Gravel Hero who represents the heart of this community.
