About

La Roche-en-Ardenne sits at the heart of Belgian Luxembourg, a province of dense forests, river valleys and winding gravel roads that form the ideal backdrop for a demanding ultra-gravel event. The Bolero Great Gravel offers three distances of 90, 150 and 225 km, the longest carrying genuine ultra character for experienced riders seeking more than a standard race experience. The June date places it at a point in the season where long-distance aerobic capacity should be fully developed. For Push Rider athletes targeting ultra formats, this event rewards months of sustained volume training: the Ardennes terrain demands consistent output across many hours, and riders who have built their aerobic base systematically will manage the closing kilometres far better than those relying on short-term fitness. The Push Training 360 plan structures phased nutrition and long-block pacing in the weeks before La Roche, with the coach confirming in the weekly review that load absorption is on track and no residual fatigue compromises race-day output.
