    We are announcing our fall edition of the Julian Death March.
    Slated for Saturday October 25[SUP]th[/SUP], 2014.
    We have changed the ride distances to 50 and 72 miles, based upon rider feedback. We are eliminating Rodriquez and Oriflame Canyons from the mix. I know everyone is going to be crushed with this decision!
    This will give more riders the opportunity to ride the Santa Ysabel open space preserve.
    So pick your poison 50 or 72 miles with either 6500 or 9500 feet of climbing.
    We are offering an early bird discount for those that register this month (July). Only $79!
    For registration go to webscorer at: http://www.webscorer.com/register?raceid=24980
    For event info go to our main web page at: http://www.julianactive.com/Julian7500.htm

    We plan on offering a 22 mile fun ride the day of the race. It will be the last part of the 72 mile ride and will start later so the fun riders can ride along with the racers. This section takes in the beautiful Santa Ysabel Open Space preserve. Registration for the fun ride will be up soon.

    72 miler sounds fun. What's the terrain like? I see lots of pavement and fire road.

    Mixed surfaces. Pavement, dirt road, singletrack, double track. Great scenery and lots of climbing. A fun day in the saddle.

    If you have ever thought about doing the Julian Death March, now is the time! 2014 will be our final year for the Julian Death March.
    We would like to thank all of those who have participated in this epic event the last 20 plus years and particularly to our fine volunteers who have made this event possible.

    I am so very tempted to give it a go....but don't have the time to pre-ride any of the course.

    I really wanted to do it again... But I have family coming into town on that day.

    @mntbikej- After reading some of your ride reports, I don't think you would have a problem with the course!

    Just do it, not really needed, it's tame. They took out the nasty part, Oriflame put the Death in the Death March.
