Dustman Chiang Rai
The first gravel race in Thailand since 2022.
Gravel riding has been a big hit in the US and Europe in the last few years. Safety and freedom are the main keys of gravel riding as you stick mostly to small roads and dirt tracks. The race time is between 4-8 hours depending on the racers’ fitness and skills. Gravel race usually involves about 70% off road and 30% on road riding.
