À propos de l'événement

This ride has 4 interesting gravel routes on one of the original gravel courses/venues in the Midwest. Event is designed for whole family with varied routes. These should be the same routes as prior events, but please update your GPS files if possible (we will ride courses for road outages in May).

We post files on our facebook page (and hopefully--to come--a web page). We have bought a Ride with GPS event account. If you have a Ride with GPS free account, and this invite, you can have your times automatically saved for the day, no matter what time you ride:  https://ridewithgps.com/auto_approve/Club/5433/JO1bR4Fl03vGyGHX

In your free Ride with GPS account, choose sync with Garmin under uploads, and you can automatically have the routes synced, and result uploaded.

We expect to have Ride With GPS timed leaderboards for all degraded road sections on the longest route, and for all routes starting at the first gravel section till the I80 overpass returning to town.

The longest route includes several degraded roads, and is the most difficult. Conditions can vary year-to-year or even week-to-week as roads are re-graded or re-graveled. All routes have significant gravel. All routes pass through parks as a potential rest stop. Wind, rain, heat, and gravel conditions can make ride times significantly slower than expected.

The ride is 100% self supported.

We make the event free to encourage participation. So have fun, be safe and observe health and safety guidelines; be safe at stop signs and on any busy roads leaving or returning to town.

Please be safe and respectful in the state parks. With 4-6 hours of riding, you can chill in the parks, or even stop: don't scare a pedestrian by making an attack, etc. There are bathrooms in the parks but not on the 2 shorter courses.

After the ride we typically pass a hat for WBR. The Pony Shop Juniors Cycling Team and the team's families donate money to this charity every year. This year, coming out of COVID, we'll hope to see some more of you for a drink and a sandwich after the race.
