Dark hoodie weather
Cold-start air, charcoal layers, and the kind of parking-lot atmosphere that feels better under cloud cover.
June 6 to 7, 2026 · Hiawatha National Forest
Pacific Northwest mood, Upper Peninsula dirt.
Iron & Pine Omnium
A gravel weekend for dark hoodies, cold starts, and a women’s field that helps set the tone.
Think mist, pine sap, camera flash, and a staging area that feels like a scene instead of a generic expo. Day one is a fondo-style group ride. Day two flips into timed sectors and KOM chases. Overall winners are still calculated separately for men, women, and non-binary riders.
Women set the tone
The women’s field is treated like a real headliner here, with equal standing in the story and the scoring.
Real omnium pressure
One day stretches the group. One day detonates it. The table rewards whoever can carry form across both.
Forest Flyer · 2026
Fog in the lot. Fir shadows on the course. Two days to earn the table.

Fondo opener
Day 1 · MK Ultra Gravel
Long miles, rolling pace lines, and a moving-time benchmark that still bites.

Day 2 · Hiawatha's Revenge
Timed gravel sectors, climb points, and the selective day that settles the omnium.
Open companion siteScene Setting
Built like the flyer for the gravel weekend everybody wanted to be seen at.
This version keeps the Hiawatha terrain intact and shifts the visual language: darker, colder, more cinematic, and more specific about the culture around the ride. Less generic race brochure, more forest-night event identity.
Pacific Northwest palette
Deep fir greens, wet-stone neutrals, ember accents, and cream text that reads like a poster taped up in a bike shop window.
More scene than expo
The page now leans toward underground event-flyer energy instead of generic race brochure polish.
Still grounded in the math
The moody visuals do not replace the weekend logic. They frame the scoring system and the category-based leaderboard more clearly.
Outdoor note
Mist line
Cold air hanging over fir tops, the kind of weather that makes the whole start grid feel quieter and more serious.
Outdoor note
Timber stand
A straight-run forest corridor, wet grass under the trees, and the visual texture the page was missing.
Outdoor note
Cloud shelf
Dark ridges and swallowed horizons so the event feels like it belongs outside, not just inside panels and type.
Weekend Flow
Two linked ride days. One final ranking.
The opener establishes moving-time pressure without turning the weekend into a single stopwatch contest. The closer is where sectors and climbs sort the field.
Fondo opener
Day 1 · MK Ultra Gravel
Long miles, rolling pace lines, and a moving-time benchmark that still bites.
An all-day fondo-style group ride where moving time matters without flattening the opener into a pure race.

Day 2 · Hiawatha's Revenge
Timed gravel sectors, climb points, and the selective day that settles the omnium.
A grinduro-style day across Alger and Marquette County where gravel sectors and KOM points decide the weekend.
Visit companion siteScoring System
The mood is cinematic. The math stays blunt.
Fastest category benchmarks are normalized to 100, then weighted across the weekend. The visuals got moodier, but the logic remains strict and readable.
35% weighted contribution
Day 1 moving time
Each rider is benchmarked against the fastest moving time in their category. The opener matters, but it does not overpower the rest of the weekend.
45% weighted contribution
Day 2 gravel sectors
All timed gravel sectors are totaled, benchmarked against the fastest category aggregate, and weighted most heavily to reflect the grinduro pressure.
20% weighted contribution
Day 2 KOM points
Climb points reward riders who race aggressively, even if they are not the absolute fastest across every gravel sector.
Formula
Overall score = day 1 benchmark ratio × 35 + day 2 sector benchmark ratio × 45 + KOM benchmark ratio × 20
Each category is ranked independently. The leaderboard below uses sample rider data so the model and UI can be validated before importing real results.
Leaderboard
Three categories. Three score inputs. One winner in each field.
The leaderboard below still runs on sample data, but the presentation now matches the event identity instead of dropping into a generic utility table.
