Race Info

For those drawn to the unfiltered spirit of off-road riding, DIRTYLAND is a premier gravel race in Indonesia.
This event is not about pristine roads but the raw texture of the land, a call to embrace dust and grit. It’s about finding a rhythm over challenging terrain, with the sound of gravel under tyres as a constant companion. The atmosphere is grounded in the profound experience of moving through a landscape under your own power.
Riders choose from three distinct formats: a demanding 125-kilometer race, a punchier 70-kilometer course, a bootleg of all the above: DirtySessions, or the Dirtyland XL for the greatest test of endurance. Each route showcases the character of the region’s unpaved network, from hard-packed earth to looser, dustier sections that demand focus. It is a true challenge for any rider looking for a gravel race in Greater Jakarta, Indonesia.
As a race-format event, Dirtyland brings a competitive edge. The energy is one of collective effort and personal challenge, testing training and strategy against the clock and fellow competitors. It is a day defined by sustained effort and the pursuit of the finish line. The format encourages a focused mindset, where pacing and fueling become as important as raw power, creating a deeply engaging race day experience.
The event unfolds on 26–27 September 2026 in the unique environment of Tangerang, offering a departure from the expected. The promise is one of exploring the less-travelled paths that define the gravel ethos. Events like this are a reminder that adventure can be found close to urban centres, offering a different perspective on a familiar region while helping to grow Indonesia’s cycling scene.
More than a competition, Dirtyland is about immersion in the elements. The call to “Let’s Get DIRTY!” sets a clear expectation for a sensory experience, celebrating the determination required to push through difficult conditions. The satisfaction comes from that effort.
The support from well-known brands like Shimano points to a professionally organized event, allowing riders to focus fully on the journey unfolding before them.
Ultimately, Dirtyland is an invitation to connect with a more rugged form of cycling. It’s for the rider who finds beauty in the effort and reward in the simplicity of a long day on the bike. The dust that settles on the frame is a souvenir of the journey.
