Rebecca's Private Idaho is a multi-stage gravel bicycle race inside Idaho's beautiful, rugged, and vast interior.
We offer up to four days riding, and as much as 200 miles of pristine gravel right in the center of Idaho's rugged heartland. New this year, you can choose your favorite stage, or select all of them by joining our coveted Queen’s Stage Race.
Our charitable efforts support the Be Good™ Foundation which removes financial barriers and provides more access to cycling opportunities for individuals from underrepresented communities: women, military veterans, para cyclists, BIPOC, and LGTBQ+ individuals.
