GRAVELISTA returns to Seymour in 2026 as an official event of the UCI Gravel World Series.

Since its introduction in 2022, the Series has grown to more than thirty qualifying events across the globe, bringing together riders chasing a place at the UCI Gravel World Championships.

GRAVELISTA 2026 is Australia's first qualifying event for the 2027 UCI Gravel World Championships in Châtel, France.

But beyond qualification, GRAVELISTA is a celebration of gravel riding itself.

From the rolling farmland of the Goulburn Valley to the quiet roads of the Strathbogie Ranges, Seymour offers a course that's fast, rewarding and full of character. It's a place where world-class racing and weekend riders share the same roads, the same finish line and the same experience.

Whether you're racing for a place on the world stage or simply looking for an unforgettable day on the bike, we're delighted to welcome you to Seymour.

QUALIFICATION

The UCI age categories are determined by a rider's age on 31 December 2026.

GRAVELISTA 2026 is an official qualifying event for the 2027 UCI Gravel World Championships in Châtel, France. Riders finishing in the top 25% of their official UCI age category will qualify.

Qualification is based on the number of starters in each category, not the number of finishers.

The first three riders in every official age category qualify automatically, regardless of field size, provided they finish the event.

BIKES

Riders may compete on a road, gravel, cyclo-cross, mountain, hybrid or city bicycle. Tandem, recumbent and time trial bicycles are not permitted.

E-bikes are welcome in all Recreational Ride categories.

THE RIDE IS ONLY PART OF THE WEEKEND.

Seymour is more than the start and finish line.

Take time to explore the region's wineries, cafés and country pubs, discover the history of the Goulburn Valley, or simply slow down and enjoy the quiet roads that make this part of Victoria so special.

Whether you're travelling with friends, family or simply making a weekend of it, Seymour is well worth the stay.
