关于赛事
If you enjoy leisurely bike rides with a wide variety of scenery, join us while we explore Idaho's longest rail trail on this two-day 85-mile ride from alpine meadows to desert canyons. Located in southwest Idaho, the Weiser River Trail runs from Weiser to nearly New Meadows along the former Pacific and Idaho Northern rail line. The railroad grade is now owned by Friends of the Weiser River Trail (FWRT), the sponsor of this event. FWRT is dedicated to providing a unique recreational opportunity along the trail including developed trailheads and a campground to assist trail users. October Trek is an opportunity to experience our rail trail with all the amenities of a supported ride and helps you meet new cycling friends in a non-competitive atmosphere.
The rider's fee includes shuttle for the rider and bike, event shirt, meals, campground tent site and hot spring soak, luggage transportation, refreshments, sweep, and sag support. Before you register, see the October Trek participant information on kotaho.com/octobertrekinformation for more details including video and photos from past events.
The rider registration fee includes one free shirt. Riders registering after we place the order on Sept 15 will receive a shirt at the event only if we have extras available. You may purchase additional shirts and pay for them at the website as you register to ride. The shirt order deadline is Sept 15. Event shirts are Sport-Tek ® Posi-UV™ Pro Long Sleeve Tee. ST420LS with the event logos. We will determine the shirt color from what is available from the manufacturer in September.
If you have non-riders accompanying you, additional fees apply to them for camping and hot spring use and each meal the non-rider chooses to attend. Non-rider meals are limited to Saturday lunch, Saturday Supper (includes hot spring and tent camping), and Sunday breakfast. Non-riders are not eligible for Sunday lunch because it will be on the trail.
Event registration is for tent camping at Mundo Hot Spring. There are optional RV site, a 6 bunk hostel, hotel style room or cabin available at additional cost. Reservations may be made directly with Mundo Hot Spring at 208-257-3849.
We also offer a custom cycling jersey designed for us by Canari Custom. It is described on the merchandise page as well as at this website http://www.kotaho.com/weiser-river-trail-bike-jersey/
