2026 Belgian Waffle Ride Utah
The 2026 Annual Belgian Waffle Ride Utah returns to Cedar City—our high-desert haven for all things dust, drama, and delicious suffering. The 2026 course will showcase a fresh take on Cedar City’s rugged beauty—featuring an all-new route across gravel, sand, and rock, at altitude, with a dynamic array of rippable unroad spiciness (no crazy single-track this time).

2026 Belgian Waffle Ride Montana
The 2026 Belgian Waffle Ride Montana returns to Bozeman for the grand finale of the Quad-Tripel Crown of Gravel—our high-elevation epic where grit meets grandeur, and waffles meet wild Montana skies.
Bozeman’s lush landscapes, framed by the majestic Rocky Mountains, set the stage for one of the most breathtaking and demanding races in the series. Riders will experience everything from smooth valley roads and winding forest tracks to rolling gravel climbs and high-speed descents through Big Sky Country.
The BWR MT is more than a race—it’s a journey through pristine wilderness, wide-open plains, and an unforgettable weekend of unroad adventure, Belgian waffles, and cold beer.
