The first ticket window for the 2027 Gravel Worlds opens in Leuven.
Leuven Legacy Gravel sends most qualifying categories over 132 kilometres with approximately 880 metres of climbing through the rolling Brabantse Wouden; men 60+ and women 50+ race 86 kilometres with approximately 560 metres. The organizer describes punchy climbs and gravel sectors in quick succession, with the final route and GPX still to come. This twelve-week Finisher plan builds sustained group speed, repeatable punch, endurance, fueling, and wet-weather readiness so you can keep riding well late in the race.

Hey, I'm Matti. I spent 11 years at TrainingPeaks, where they trusted me to teach coaches how to coach at TrainingPeaks University. I raced Amateur Elite with Rio Grande Cycling Team and podiumed my age group at Unbound 200 in 2026. I have a degree in biology and exercise physiology from St. Olaf. I'm also a middle-aged dad of three, so I know training doesn't happen in a vacuum. I help gravel riders get stupidly fast without becoming the person who brings a food scale to a party
