BWR UT: Get Ready for the Hell of the Southwest (Utah)
Congratulations on considering registration for the wildest, most BTFU adventure of 2025—the Sixth Annual Belgian Waffle Ride UT! The Belgian Waffle Ride (BWR) Series is set to make history in 2025 with the introduction of the Quad-Tripel Crown of Gravel Series, a new and formidable addition to the BWR calendar (your top three of the four races are scored), and it all starts in Arizona, heads to California and then over Utah, ultimately culminating in Bozeman, Montana.
We can't wait until you’ve officially signed up for the unique unroad challenge that only BWR can offer. But before you start flexing those quads, we’ve got to ask—are you sure you’re up for this? It’s gonna be a beast, but trust us, it’s a helluva lot of fun. If you’re game, bring a friend along for the ride—because suffering and joy are always better with company, right?
Now that you’re locked in, here’s a little taste of what to expect: We’re crafting some next-level ‘rippable’ courses that mix just the right blend of road, unroad, gravel, single-track, double-track, sand, rocks, whoops, water crossings, and mud. Every turn will be clearly marked, and we’ve amped up the Feed Zones to keep you fueled with all kinds of treats—including, of course, those iconic Belgian waffles. Expect a feed every 20 miles, staffed by our ever-enthusiastic volunteers who’ll keep you moving with smiles, snacks, and maybe even a lavender spritz if you’re feeling fancy.
Leading up to the event, keep an eye on your inbox for emails detailing the course sectors and exclusive offers from our BWR partners. Seriously, don’t be that rider who misses crucial info like the start time or venue address! Each email will also give you the option to switch to the Wafer or Wanna, or even volunteer if you’re having second thoughts (we won’t judge).
At least one week out, we’ll release all the new course details and all the nitty-gritty in the BWR Race Bijbel—so get ready! We will periodically reveal various unroad sectors that will be key features of the 2025 BWR AZ. Again, this year, we will offer a new course!
