    Third running of the event! We're officially a toddler! A good amount of fun to be had by all... hope to see some of you there! I'll be pestering all with more details as they come up :)

    Here's the best write up of last year's event:

    And a great video that's also in the link above, but deserves it's own:


    The intention is to have a solid ride that's just tough enough, but not too tough for most people. Around 100km (62 miles), and doable on a MTB or a road bike, but best enjoyed on a cross bike. Last year we really put a great course together that avoided traffic, and was able to be altered by riders to shorten up on skip portions easily. Moderate levels of support/aide stations, designed to be inexpensive.

    We want to get people on bikes (!) and promote the riding in and around Redlands. Open to any suggestions you may have!
