US-based Life Time announced they will partner with Flanders Classics to designate a first-ever qualifier event for Unbound Gravel in 2025. Heathland Gravel, set for August 11 in Maasmechelen, Belgium, will provide 50 qualifier spots for next year’s Unbound Gravel in Emporia, Kansas.
Half of those entries will be awarded to riders based on performance in the 160-kilometre (100-mile) long event, with the balance distributed using a random draw. The pair of heavy-hitter organisers did not confirm details of the qualifier positions, such as a split among gender or age groups.
