The Gravel Cycling Community of Tifton invites you to our premier FREE Gravel Cycling Event in South Georgia. The 5th annual "Laughing Donkey Gravel Invitational" is a FREE gravel adventure supported by sponsors and donors. We only ask that you consider donating to our cause. For every $20 or more donation, you'll receive an event t-shirt and other goodies (more details below).
We offer a variety of distances: (80, 60mi, 40mi, 25mi, 15mi) with two aid stations to support your ride.
The Laughing Donkey supports the Anthony Bateman Youth Center Scholarship Foundation. The money raised will be used to fund scholarships for dedicated local students pursuing post-secondary education. Please share this event with your favorite friends.
