Swift Summit 200/100

ABOUT 

Part brevet, part gran fondo, part self-supported endurance road race. Riders are provided a cue sheet, a marked course, and aid station/control points approximately 40 miles apart to restock. In between those support checks, riders can access convenience stores and other neutral amenities along the course as needed. The 200-mile route boasts over 10,000 feet of climbing and features several sections of challenging gravel roads, while the 100-mile route checks in just around 6,000 feet of climbing and has no gravel.  Both courses offer scenic views of the Cascades Mountain range and run alongside the swift Santiam and Calapooia Rivers. 

 

This timed event will begin and end in Lebanon, Oregon. Participants will roll out in a mass start before being set loose to explore the rolling back-roads and steep vistas of the mid-Willamette Valley. 200-mile riders will begin at 5 am, while the 100-mile riders will begin at 8 am. 

 

Riders can provide one drop bag, no larger than a gallon size zip-lock, that will be transported to a designated control point by event officials. Riders will be able to access their drop bag two total times. Checkpoint and course cut-offs will be implemented throughout the day in order to keep riders safe and accounted for. Please refer to the control point information on the Ride with GPS course maps below for specific control cut-off times. 

 

Riders are allowed, and encouraged, to help one another with mechanical or other support needs. There is no access for outside team support other than at the designated control points. Any rider who does not meet the checkpoint deadline, or those needing to pull themselves from the course, may do so at any checkpoint. Rider's are encouraged to arrange a friend or family member to pick them up.
