The Shimano Gravel Muster is Australia's premier multi-day gravel stage race, run by Rapid Ascent through the remote East MacDonnell Ranges near Alice Springs.
Over four days and roughly 384km, riders tackle a mix of timed racing segments and relaxed, untimed cruising sections on car-free gravel roads through dramatic outback gorges and open plains. Winter conditions bring mild days and clear skies, and the field — capped at 100 riders — stays together each night at outback cattle stations, with all meals, accommodation, and logistics included. It's designed for everyone from casual gravel riders to competitive racers, built around adventure, challenge, and camaraderie.
