The 2026 Nannup Gravel Tour delivered three highly demanding stages of virtual gravel racing on the rugged, rolling terrain of Western Australia’s South West region. We navigated a high-paced 3-stage tour that tested our timing with punchy climbing and our endurance over the key stages from Brockman, Adina to Lewana, and the Ellis to Glacier finale.
Stage 1: Brockman
Fast-flowing rolling gravel, designed to fragment early breakaway attempts.
Stage 2: Adina to Lewana
Kick-started by the 1 km Adina Climb before transitioning into undulating roads with variable gradient shifts. We rode a tactical race, pacing the initial gradient spikes and utilising draft dynamics on the flatter mid-stage stretches to maintain a solid position.
Stage 3: Ellis to Glacier
With the decisively steep Ellis Creek ascent before topping out on a high plateau rolling down to the finish.
Each stage we banked critical points for the series, placing 5th in points and 5th overall on GC time.
