GRAVEL
Smooth tarmac isn’t your thing? Fancy getting muddy and off the beaten track?
WE ALSO RIDE OFF-ROAD!
BBB GO GRAVEL RIDES
Anyone with a bit of gravel biking under their belt is welcome to join. This is a no drop ride and the emphasis is on having fun and discovering hidden trails!
Those rides are for members only.
Route is announced a few days before the ride in our Strava Club (registration through Strava compulsory)
All rides start from the Kiosk (Bois de la Cambre). No drop policy.
Check-out our FAQ section to have a comprehensive view of the rules of the rides.
DISCOVERY RIDES
We sometimes organise Discovery Rides, for beginners or for those who just want to improve their skills, with our certified Adeps / FCWB initiators. Check out your Strava BBB events regularly to be sure you get the information.
COLLECTION OF GRAVEL ROUTES
BBB is building a collection of gravel routes. These rides start from the same meeting point at the Kiosque, which is just a few minutes ride from the vast Foret de Soignes / Zoniënwoud.
New routes are added regularly, so keep an eye out for new tracks to explore.
FAQ - ABOUT BBB GO GRAVEL
– Minimum 33 mm tyres with profile!
– We ride, even if it’s raining or in case of poor weather.
– We do not ride in case of ice or dangerous wind.
– All traffic rules apply, no discussion, safety first!
– A helmet is mandatory.

First of all, whatever the bike you’ll use, do not forget you should be able to ride between 2 or 3 hours on gravel routes before joining.
A bike with profiled tires, min width of 33 is recommended.
Can I join with a mountain bike?
Yes! About 1/4 to 1/3 of riders come on MTB.
Can I come with a commuter bike?
It’s not recommended as many of the routes involve technical sections (mud, rocks, sand, …) where a more dedicated bike helps a lot.
For sure! Should you want to raise up some suggestion, do not hesitate to get back to us.
