Grinduro is ready to rock Lock Haven, PA on July 18, 2026

Grinduro PA has officially announced its return to the cycling calendar, slated for July 18, 2026, in Lock Haven, Clinton County. This marks a significant relocation for the popular gravel event, which previously established itself in the state. The move signals a new chapter for Grinduro's distinctive blend of racing and festival atmosphere, confirming its continued presence in the North American gravel scene.

This announcement is notable given the increasingly crowded gravel event landscape and Grinduro's unique position as a more experience-driven, rather than purely competitive, fixture. Its previous iterations in Pennsylvania garnered a loyal following, and the move to Lock Haven suggests a strategic decision to explore new terrain and potentially a broader participant base. For a series known for its 'party-to-race ratio,' securing a new host location well in advance is a testament to its enduring appeal and the organisers' commitment.

While 2026 seems a distant horizon, the early announcement ensures Grinduro remains firmly in the consciousness of gravel enthusiasts, proving that even a party needs a proper reservation.
