Registration for Women's Special Blend Gravel Camp Gorge Opens

The spring edition of the Special Blend Gravel Camp, a women's intermediate to advanced gravel camp in the Columbia Gorge has opened. Limited 25 Spots Available!

Women's Special Blend Gravel Camp Fall Announced

Enhance your gravel riding with Breakaway Promotions; refine your cornering and descending skills, dial in your tire pressure, learn about nutrition and recovery, and connect with other amazing gravel riders in beautiful Oregon.

Special Blend Gravel Camp Gorge taking place March 30 - April 2, 2023 is the perfect way to kick-start the season with your gravel riding friends and prepare for your 2023 riding and racing goals.

There are only 25 spots for the Special Blend Gravel Gorge camp, based in Dufur, Oregon, at the historic Balch Hotel.

You’ll spend three and half days riding amazing gravel roads in Columbia Gorge, focusing on cornering and descending techniques, learn about tire choice, tubeless setup, PSI, nutrition and recovery, and adventure and race tips & tricks from some of the best in the business of gravel.

Balch Hotel in Dufur is an intimate getaway in the Oregon countryside, an award-winning boutique inn, an oasis to relax and re-enter, while mountain views and rustic dining fuel the soul. Built in 1907 and protected under the National Register of Historic Places, the Balch is an iconic historic hotel steeped in PNW history. It's a one-of-a-kind destination offering pure relaxation, connection, and inspiration. You don't need to venture far to reach breath-taking waterfalls, gravel trails, Mt Hood, and the mighty Columbia and Deschutes Rivers

Bring your climbing legs to camp, and be ready to make descending your strategic advantage. While there is some flat terrain, we won’t spend much time there- we'll head for the hills!
