April 20th in Cedar Hill, New Mexico
This route is almost all dirt, with a touch of pavement, and includes 4 miles of the Alien Run single track. You'll encounter steep punchy climbs up to 12%, and breathtaking views, all on some of the most remote gas field roads we have to offer.
Mileage offered includes distances of 9 miles, 35 miles and 50 miles. These roads may be rougher than other gravel event roads and there is 3.8 miles of singletrack on the alien trail. Make sure your gravel bike is up for the burly roads NM has to offer! If you don't have a gravel bike a mountain bike is perfectly acceptable.
MANDATORY navigation device with the route you are riding for the 35 and 50 mile rides. There are a bunch of tricky turns out there and we don't want anyone getting lost. The course will be marked the best we can but if we use the combination, we should avoid lost riders. The 35 mile course aid station will be at miles 13 and 22. The 50 mile course aid stations will be placed at miles 13 and 37.
The registration fee for all under 23 Categories and the 15 mile ride is $35.00
