Ukiah – Mendo Gravel Epic

Thanks to Mendocino Redwood Company and the City of Ukiah you will be treated to a 32 mile private logging road though the majestic redwood, fir and oak forests of western Mendocino County. We begin with staging at Todd Grove Park in downtown Ukiah and a neutral roll out to the Masonite Rd. The course follows a mix of gravel, chunky pavement and packed dirt to Hwy 128. From here we take Flynn Creek Rd to Comptche and then climb Comptche-Ukiah Rd to Low Gap. The course then proceeds onto Low Gap to Miller Ridge and the Masonite Rd just as we do in Low Gap Hopper. This is a one-of kind loop in true “Hopper style”. With an equal ratio of adventure/exploration and shred it’s not to be missed. The shorter route has the same start and then at mile 22 you turn onto Low Gap Rd and head back. But, at 40 miles and 4,200 ft of climbing it’s a “Proper Hopper”.
