Gravel-X: Top of the Rock is a mass-start off-road cycling event hosted by Sutton Bank Bikes, based on the escarpment above the North York Moors. The event runs on Saturday 28 March and Saturday 9 May 2026.
Gravel-X uses a short-course race format designed to bring together multiple off-road disciplines. The course combines wide, sweeping gravel sections with flowing XC singletrack and short cyclo-cross elements, allowing Gravel and Cyclo-Cross bikes to race alongside downcountry mountain bikes.
The format is designed to be fast, punchy, and inclusive, with riders of different ages and experience levels competing on the same course.
