14th Funk Bottoms Gravel June 15, 2024


Registration for the 14th Funk Bottoms Gravel will open December 1, 2023 https://www.bikereg.com/funk-bottoms-gravel-100201

The 14th edition of the Funk Bottoms Gravel will be held on Saturday, June 15, 2024, in Glenmont, OH. The 200K will start at 7:00 am and the 100K will start at 8:00 am.

This year there will be a limit of 100 racers for the Men's 100K and Men's Masters 100K. There will be no registration limits for Women, Single Speed, or the 200K. 

Funk Bottoms Gravel will once again challenge cyclists to Ohio’s Toughest Gravel Grinder. As usual, we have come up with a very special course this year. Two races, one brutal course! A one-lap 100K race and for the ultimate challenge, a double-lap 200K race. The course will take riders along some of Ohio’s most scenic backcountry roads. On each lap, riders will be challenged with over 7,000 feet of vertical climbing! The 200K race is an Ohio epic. It is a relentless and grueling climber’s course.

The Funk Bottoms Gravel 100K/200K is a self-supported event and riders must be prepared for any mechanical and nutritional needs. No outside support is allowed. The course will go through small towns so you can resupply with food and water. Our good friends at Hammer Nutrition will once again be providing support with Hammer Fuels before the race, and at the secret checkpoint. Be prepared to ride 25-30 miles between water stops

Road conditions are a mix of paved, chip & seal, and 80% gravel & dirt roads.  Details on this year's course with maps, cue sheets, and GPX files will be posted in May. Keeping with Funk Bottoms tradition of not using the same route each year. This year’s race will be an entirely new course incorporating various roads from previous years along with some new sections.  Funk Bottoms Gravel is a cue sheet race. The roads are open to normal traffic in the area.  Expect to encounter cars, trucks, horses, buggies, farm equipment, ATV’s, buzzards, road kill, and the occasional farm dog at any given time. Rain or shine, it’s Funk time!

 

Registration will be $40 until April 30th, $50 after May 1st, and $60 after June 1st.  All racers who register before May 31st will receive a T-Shirt.  Racers who enter the 200K will be eligible to earn points for the Ohio Gravel Race Series.  Registration will close on Friday, June 7, 2024, and there will be no race day registration. 

 

The winners of each category will receive a custom trophy and a case of Yuengling beer. There will be awards for the Top 3 in  Men’s 100K open,  Men’s 100K Masters, Woman's 100K open, Woman’s 100K Masters, 100K Single Speed, Men’s 200K open, Men’s 200K Masters, Woman's 200K open, Woman’s 200K Masters and 200K Single Speed. 

The Funk Bottoms Gravel the 200K will start at 7:00 am and the 100K will start at 8:00 am sharp at Glenmont Park 108 Main Street, Glenmont, OH   44628.

A portion of this year’s proceeds will be donated to the Holmes County Rails-to-Trails Coalition.

Please carpool if possible.  No parking on the main roads leading into or out of town. Park in an orderly fashion at the park. Do not take up multiple spaces. Make room for other vehicles. The Village of Glenmont has been more than welcoming to us, so please be respectful and clean up after yourself when leaving.



Arrive early to pick up race packets. Both races will start on time at 7:00 AM and 8:00 AM SHARP!

8:50 Riders for the Funk Family Fun Ride meeting final instructions, course notes.

9:00 Funk Family Fun Ride Start


The race starts at the Glenmont Park entrance. There will be a short neutral roll-out this year.  Once we make the slight left onto Twp 29 it’s Funk Time. All riders are required to have a cyclo-computer that can track mileage - Yes, we will verify that you have completed the entire distance at the end.

 

Post Race

There will be a beverage ticket in everyone’s race packet.  We will have coolers full of ice-cold Yuengling, Coke, and water for everyone to enjoy. Unfortunately, the Glenmont Tavern and Glenmont Store are still closed. The Buckeye Deli in Nashville will be onsite with Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Baked Beans.

 

Awards will be given to the top 3 in Men's 100K, Men’s 100K Masters, Women's 100K, Women’s 100K masters, Single Speed 100K, Men's 200K, Men’s 200K Masters, Woman’s 200K, Women’s 200K Masters and Single Speed 200K.  The top 3 in each category will receive a custom trophy.  There will also be merchandise from our sponsors for the top 3. Thanks to DeFeet, Hammer Nutrition, Kockaround, Steadfast Fenders, Fuzzy Stitchwork’s and Yuengling.

 

  For the 200K racers, any racer doing the 200K race starting the second lap after 6.5 hours (1:30) must have lights with them. There is a cutoff of 7.5 hours (2:30) for 200K racers to start the second lap. Yes, the 200K racers are allowed to stop by their vehicle between laps. You cannot decide after the race starts that you will be doing the 100K, if you do not start the second lap it will be counted as a DNF. You must ride over the timing loop when starting the second lap. Please let us know when going out for the second lap so we can keep track of everyone. Additionally, if you cut short and drop out inform us.  We don’t want to call your emergency contact at 11:00 Saturday night to ask if they have heard from you.

 

 The weather on Saturday looks like a chance of showers and a high of around 80. Hopefully, the forecast improves before then.

 

The Funk Bottoms Gravel race is self-supported and no outside support is allowed. There is no SAG, you are responsible for you.  

A little clarification on outside support.  The course is designed for the racers to be as self-sufficient as possible.  There will be a secret checkpoint that will be stocked with Hammer Nutrition products. The location of the secret checkpoint will be announced in the morning. Several stores will be around mile 27 when the course heads through Nashville.  You also will have the option around mile 42 to head about half a mile off-course for a Dollar General in Killbuck. The intention is to make the race fair for everyone since some people will travel to the race alone, and not be able to get hand-ups along the course.  There is no formal SAG, however, if you have a medical problem or major mechanical there would be no problem getting outside assistance. We have picked up racers in a final sweep late in the evening in the past. I normally try to ride with $40 cash with me when in the area. $20 for food and water at small-town stores and $20 if things go horribly wrong and I need to pay someone gas money since cell phone service is sketchy along the course. You will find that the people in the area are very friendly. Gravel Angles are allowed to set up an open oasis along the course.

 

Ohio Gravel Race Series

The Funk Bottoms Gravel 200K is stop #4 on the Ohio Gravel Race Series.  Racers completing the 200K will receive points toward the series.

 

Course Notes

We found out less than two weeks before the race about a culvert replacement and for safety reasons, we had to reroute the course.  Unfortunately, the reroute will add a few extra miles of pavement.  We apologize in advance for the course not meeting the usual Funk Bottoms standards for being 90% gravel.  The good news is with the reroute the distance is still the same, but I found an extra 200 feet of climbing.  

 

The course will be marked at all intersections where you turn.  The color of the course markings will match the cue sheet supplied on race day. Think like a pirate as you navigate the gravel seas of Ohio and you will understand the course markings. Expect to encounter farm dogs, cars, trucks, horses, farm equipment and ATV's along the course at any time. If you encounter someone on horseback or an Amish buggy, please approach with care so you don’t spook the horse.

Course Markings

Don't rely on course markings as the locals may remove them after the course has been marked.  Each rider will receive a map and cue sheet that will be accurate.
