Event Highlights

The Turkey Burner brings together gravel enthusiasts from across the region for the final event of the Big River Gravel Series. Set at Camp Liberty - a 245-acre wooded property - this venue consistently delivers an unforgettable rider experience. Last year's participants couldn't get enough of this stunning location and the community atmosphere it creates.

After crossing the finish line, stick around for the post-race party. Every participant receives a slice of Casey's pizza, pumpkin pie, and a beverage of your choice - because celebrating together is half the fun of gravel riding.

Check the organizer's website for details on course terrain, elevation profiles, and accommodation options. Whether you're camping in a cabin on the grounds or driving in for the day, the Turkey Burner offers a complete gravel cycling experience that honors the spirit of community and adventure.
