Simen Nordahl Svendsen (PAS Racing) and Cecily Decker (Scuderia Pinarello) emerged as the winners of The Rift Gravel, both having to contest two-riders sprints after the 200 kilometres of racing on the sun-drenched day of racing in Iceland.

The 200km route used a counter-clockwise loop around Hekla, with the majority of the 2,165 metres of elevation gain in the opening 70km. The Rift was the fourth of five ‘Global’ events in the Gravel Earth Series.
