About the event

The Harvest 50

The Harvest 50 is more than just a race...it's an experience!  What started 10 years ago as a grassroots gravel ride with paper plates zip-tied to handlebars has evolved into one of the most anticipated gravel races in the midwest.  Back then, there was no chip timing, no food trucks, no live music...just a handful of passionate riders ready to take on the gravel.


Fast forward to today, and the Harvest 50 has grown into an annual tradition, attracting riders from across the Midwest and beyond, with an international contingent joining the fun from time to time,  The race now boasts chip timing, police escorts, professional photography, and a truly legendary post-race celebration.  Set against the backdrop of the historic Maple Lawn Farmstead, the after-party features live music, food trucks, and flowing adult beverages, creating an atmosphere that keeps riders hanging around long after they've crossed the finish line.


With two epic race distances winding through the stunning gravel roads of Boone County, indiana, the 10th Anniversary Blowout Celebration promises to be bigger an better than ever.  Whether you're here to race, ride, or simply soak in the expereiece, one thing is for certain...the Harvest 50 is an event you won't want to miss!
