Description
Round 2 of the Gravel King/Gravel Queen series rolls through the magnificent Hill Country around Llano, TX. Riders are guaranteed amazing views along a scenic route which includes crossing the Llano River and meanderings through the local mountains and bluffs.
No license required, Team Spinistry members save 25%!
Wild life is plentiful along the route and many of the roads journey through open grazing lands. Routes will be marked and access to water will be available every 20-30 miles. GPS files and access to FREE premium Ride With GPS services will be provided to all registered participants the week of the event.
The routes are intended to be remote with an expectation of minimal contact with cars and trucks along the network of County roads. Staging will be at the John L. Kuykendall Event Center and Arena on the outskirts of town. Llano Trade Days and a barrel racing competition will be on site as well that day so feel free to bring along non riding family and friends to enjoy what Llano has to offer.
We will have a vendor expo on site along with after ride snacks and drinks. Feel free to bring your tents and coolers to hang out for awards and the after party.
Also, Cantu Cycling Wheels will be giving away TWO sets of wheels at the end of the Insurance For Texans Gravel King/Gravel Queen series in 2018. One wheelset will be awarded to a random male participant, another to a random female participant. Every series event you enter adds an entry to the drawing.
Enter one series event = one entry. 10 series events = 10 entries. Pretty sweet!

Gravel King & Gravel Queen Series Points Guide
The Insurance for Texans Race Series is points based series designed to crown a Gravel King and Gravel Queen at the end of the 2018 racing series.
Points are earned on a per event basis and are weighted towards mileage, finishing position and depth of field. Generally speaking, points earned will almost always be highest for longer distance events. The exception would be for a top finishing position in a very large field for a shorter distance. Potential points earned and point caps will be published for each event but there are no guarantees of points awards until the field is final on day of event.
We plan to have at least 10 Series races in 2018 but only the best 4 points finishes are utilized to compute overall points standings so riders are Crown eligible with only four Series events entered. Points contenders will also be allowed bonus points from a fifth Wild Card event. The Wild Card event will either be repeated use of the best finish in a previous Series event or point generated from an approved event from outside our Series. More details on Wild Card computations will be shared as the season moves along.
Projected Points:
100 Mile Open (based on 50 entries): 160 for 1st, 115 for 10th, points awarded for all finishing positions
