What do I need to know?
Ridium's training read and the caveats before you trust the times.
Training read · Ridium AIThe 54 km route at Hegau Gravel Race 2026 is a gravel endurance ride where mixed off-road surfaces demand steady pacing, sure handling, and self-sufficient fuelling.
- Technical
Train on loose and mixed surfaces so line choice, grip and braking stay confident; pick tyres with enough volume and tread for the terrain.
- Endurance
Build off-road endurance toward the 54 km distance, since gravel saps more energy than road for the same distance; long unpaved rides prepare both legs and contact points, allowing roughly 10 weeks of build.
- Fueling
Plan to be largely self-sufficient between feed points, rehearsing regular eating and drinking on rough surfaces where reaching pockets is harder than on smooth tarmac.
