Event Date: June 16th, 2024

We are pleased to announce that Hutchinson will be the official technical partner of the French stage of the Trek UCI Gravel World Series: the Wish One Gravel Millau Grands Causses.

This event is particularly important to us as it reflects our commitment to the gravel community.

Gravel World Series: A Benchmark Competition

Gravel riding has really taken off in recent years, and since 2022, the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) has launched the Trek UCI Gravel World Series. This series brings together the best gravel specialists across 17 stages in 14 different countries, all qualifying for the world championships in Italy in October 2024.

In France, Wish One has been chosen to organize the only French stage. Meet us in Millau on June 16th, 2024, for an authentic gravel experience! The day before, on June 15th, 2024, Open, Cadet, and Junior races will take place on the UCI courses, providing an exciting atmosphere for all enthusiasts.

A Course to Discover

The start will be in Millau, with a 145 km course that promises to be varied and challenging. You’ll traverse rustic roads, rolling paths, single tracks, wooded trails, and forest paths. The landscapes of the Grands Causses will offer a beautiful variety, but you’ll also have to climb some significant hills before reaching the finish line under the Millau Viaduct. Prepare for a technical and physical challenge to hope to qualify for the world championships.

Hutchinson’s Commitment to Gravel

At Hutchinson, gravel is not just a discipline, it’s a true passion. We have recently launched two new tyres designed for gravel competitions and high-speed rides: the Caracal Race and the Caracal. With our long experience in the gravel world and our constant desire to improve our products, we are proud to provide reliable and high-performance solutions to the gravel community.

A Shared Passion

With over 130 years of experience in manufacturing road and MTB tyres, including the invention of tubeless technology, we bring a wealth of knowledge to gravel riding. We manufacture our tyres in France using high-quality materials to ensure the best for our users. This passion drives us to continually innovate and create products tailored to the specific needs of gravel cyclists.

We look forward to seeing you in Millau to share this wonderful event together. For more information, visit the official website of the Wish One Gravel Millau Grands Causses: wishonegravelrace.com.
