Registration opens for the UCI 2022 Utah-Cache Gran Fondo

The a beautiful 76-mile (122-km) course is a qualifier event for both the UCI Gran Fondo World Series and the Gran Fondo National Series, which will lead riders through the Cache Valley towards Idaho to finish back in Logan.

The open roads and green flat farm fields of Cache Valley, one of northern Utah's best-kept cycling secrets, will once again become a major draw for thousands of cyclists.

Many riders pick the event for their first century, the challenge of a 50-miler, or as a training ride for bigger events like the Tour of Utah’s Ultimate Challenge and LOTOJA.

All distances offer well-stocked support stations with real food from Lee’s Marketplace, Newton Market, Built Bar, Hammer Nutrition, and all the Gatorade, water and Pepsi products you can drink. All riders are offered a light breakfast at the start-line, and a unique rider lunch where you chose your preference from one of 3 different local restaurants.

Over 40 local and state-wide sponsors also provide over $8,000 dollars’ worth of rider prizes and rider gifts, including Campchef stoves and outdoor cooking items, cycling items from Al’s Sporting Goods, Joyride Bikes & The Sportsman. Also high-end pillows from Malouf Sleep, and ARS always provides FatBoy ice cream sandwiches as you cross the finish line.

Every year participants are offered a limited-edition cycling jersey for only $40!

2022 UCI Gran Fondo World Series Qualifier

The 76-mile course has been chosen as the official race distance for both the 2022 UCI Gran Fondo World Series and the 2022 Gran Fondo National Series qualifiers. The race distance will be professionally timed, but all courses will have prizes, allowing individuals and teams to win over $8,000 dollars’ worth of awards, gifts and prizes. So beware, even those not racing can benefit from prizes awarded randomly across the event. Although much of the route is relatively flat, the routes also offer challenge climbs, but in short distances, just to keep it interesting.

2022 Gran Fondo National Series Qualifier

The Cache Gran Fondo is an official 2022 GFNS event. This includes an opportunity for riders who participate in Cache Gran Fondo to earn Series Points and qualify for the 2022 USA Cycling Gran Fondo National Championship.  This year’s National Championship will be held on July 17, 2022 in Asheville, NC.

2022 Gran Fondo National Series Qualifier

Scoring for GFNS points at Cache Gran Fondo will be determined by adding each riders’ overall Start-to-Finish time with their segment-times. Age-groups for scoring will be matched to GFNS age-groups and may not follow the same primary age-groupings used at the Cache Gran Fondo.   

Specificity calculation for GFNS placement and points will be calculated in the following way: 

- Classic Fondo Route. Cache Gran Fondo has designated their 75 mile course as the qualifier and will count the 1) Start-to-Finish time + 2) KOM/QOM Climb segment times + 3) Sprint segment  = the competitive time for GFNS Gran Route placement and points. Prizes will also be awarded for segment wins as well as overall.

- The Century, Medio and Piccolo Routes will not be competitively timed for GFNS Route placement and points. All riders will be eligible for prizes based on random drawing throughout the day.
