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! 

- See Road Closures if you are running late. You will not be able to pass through until after racers have gone through.

6:50 Rider for 200K meeting final instructions, course notes

7:00 200K Start

7:50 Rider for 100K meeting final instructions, course notes

8:00 100K Start

The race starts at the Glenmont Park entrance. There will be a short neutral roll-out this year.  Once we make the slight right on to Twp 20  it's Funk Time. All riders are required to have a cyclocomputer that can track mileage - Yes, we will verify that you completed the entire distance at the end.

Post Race

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, Kenda Tire, Steadfast Fenders, Fuzzy Stitchworks 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. 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 be calling your emergency contact at 11:00 Saturday night asking if they have heard from you.

 The weather looks good for Saturday with a chance of showers in the afternoon and a high around 80. The Funk Bottoms Gravel race is self-supported and no outside support is allowed. There will be a creek crossing less than half a mile from the finish.  We will bypass the creek for safety reasons if heavy rain.  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. There will be several stores around mile 30 when the course heads through Warsaw.  You also will have the option around mile 53 to head about half 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 of the Ohio Gravel Race Series.  Racers completing the 200K will receive points for the series.

Course Notes

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.

As usual, this year’s race will be an entirely new course incorporating various roads from previous years along with some new sections. This 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.
