2025 gravel national champions index
A guide to who is wearing the jersey of a gravel national champion and when the title battles take place

As gravel continues to grow as a discipline so too does the formal recognition of top riders from among its ranks and it's not just the rainbow striped jersey that comes with a world title in the discipline that is up for grabs – the list of national champions too is growing.
From South Africa to Spain and the United States, the battles for the national titles are unfolding throughout the year. For some winning is a matter of pride, for others an essential stepping stone either to the World Championships or opportunities across the spectrum of gravel events, whether it be among the new wave of UCI races or those within the more established yet informal setting of the United States.
Cyclingnews has once again been keeping track of these championships as they are announced and new champions when they are crowned so read on for a full list of all the riders who will be venturing out on the gravel in their national colours.
For a full list of last year's Gravel National Championships winners and news see our index from 2024 and you can also check out our index from 2023. There is also plenty more gravel news available on our gravel home page and the UCI Gravel World Series and Unbound Gravel hubs.
