5-DAY MTB/GRAVEL VERSION

What is the MTB/GRAVEL Version????
​
Well, we're glad you asked. Considering we're hosting the MTB and gravel at the same time now, we thought how cool it would be to combine the two races where you would race in the MTB version and also the gravel version.
​
For 2026, you will race the MTB version on May 19-20 and then the Gravel Version on May 21-23. This will work just as if you were racing in just the MTB or the gravel. Your times will be combined each day for your GC time, and you will compete for daily podiums against other racers in the MTB/Gravel version.

DUO TEAMS
​
-
Duo teams are meant to ride together during the stage.
-
Teams time will be taken by combining the two racers' times together.
-
If team members finish more than five minutes apart, there will be a one-hour time penalty added to their stage time.
​
WHAT IS THE EXPERIENCE OPTION?
It’s a fair question. Something so easy and fun to do shouldn’t be so hard to explain.
​
-
This is a non-competitive category (meaning you are not competing for daily or GC awards). Basically, the Experience option is a great way to save some cash and still experience the event like everyone else. Less stress and still all the epic fun. Think of it as a ride, compared to a race.
-
Since this is a non-competitive category, you do not have to ride everyday if you do not want too. Maybe you have to work one day, or decide five or three days is too much and want to sit out one day, etc.
-
If you finish all five or three stages, you will receive a finisher award just like the competitive categories.
-
Need a little extra time to beat the cutoffs? This option can leave earlier than the official start time. You'll just need to let us know so that we can start your time and know that you're on the course.
