The 50km distanse finishes at CP1 (we can transport riders back to Geilo). If you register for the 150km/ 100km but only make it to CP1 we will still call you a “finisher” (an FV50 finisher). The same applies if you enter the 150km event but only ride the 100km distance. You will of course not count in any ranking or the competition itself. \nWe arrange a training camp prior to the race (from Monday to Wednesday 24th-26th of January). This is meant as a course about safe and efficient winter travel where you learn and practice the essentials. \nLooking forward to seeing you all in Geilo\, Norway!

A secondary option is for strong but time poor XC or road racers who want to dig a little deeper without having to commit to the expense of a full multi-day bikepacking rig. These riders will need to meet the navigation challenges\, ride light\, ride hard and hit the commercial ’sleep/food’ options to make it work…. or maybe an ‘allnighter’ as has been the recent fashion.

Expect a grueling trip down some of the best gravel roads middle Georgia has to offer. The route combines the popular Red Clay Ramble and Fried Green Tomatoes routes plus a lot of weird junk I added to make it even harder! You will need a GPS or a smart phone to navigate as there will be no markings on the route at all! Expect long stretches of gravel\, mild singletrack\, water crossings\, horse trails\, and mud. If you’ve been thinking about giving this whole endurance gravel/bikepacking thing a shot\, this is the perfect event. \nSome riders will choose to race\, while others will party pace it. This event can be the perfect opportunity to try a longer gravel race\, or a tough overnighter if you want to bikepack it. If you chose to camp on the route\, there will be marked primitive campsites on the route guide you will receive via e-mail before the event. Your registration gets you the GPX route\, an in-depth route guide\, and a dope patch. We will have a camp setup the night before if you choose to come down early! You will receive more details via email once registered. This event will take place rain or shine!

The Audax is a collective adventure and a personal challenge to finish the route. There are no prizes\, no medals\, no brevet cards or finisher diplomas. \nThe route mainly goes by fast double tracks and secondary lanes but includes a few sandy sections\, rocky paths and some hike-a-bike. We recommend gravel bikes with low gearing and min 40mm wide tyres. \nFrom Lanzarote to El Hierro\, the route connects 5 islands with 4 ferries featuring epic sea-to-summit climbs across the most diverse landscapes and climates. From sunny beaches to snowy peaks\, across sandy deserts\, lava fields\, volcanic landscapes\, tropical canyons\, misty pine woods and rain forests. \nThe Audax pace is the challenge to connect all the scheduled ferries in a non-stop ride\, it’s only achievable by ultra-cycling athletes\, and the entry fee will be fully refunded to every rider fast enough to make it.

The route illustrates our area’s unique proximity to mountains\, desert\, and ocean…and stands out among peer events for its challenges. The ride will crisscross historic routes such as the Juan Bautista DeAnza trail\, the Great Southern Overland Stage Route of 1849\, and the Ramona Stage Route. We will roll out from Idyllwild in the spring for the yearly Grand Depart. This is a strictly self-supported event. \nThe Sideshow starts on March 28th (one week before the Stagecoach). It will go clockwise around a slightly modified classic Stagecoach route\, focusing on the ride being a self-paced tour where riders can soak in some of the favorite spots\, such as Iron Door Bar\, Agua Caliente Hot Springs\, the Pub at Lake Cuyamaca\, maybe even dip your toes in the ocean at Blacks Beach during low tide. The Grand Depart riders will eagerly await conditions reports from this group. \nTrail info and discussion is on our Stagecoach 400 Facebook page and @stagecoach400 Instagram\, where a registration link will be posted early 2025. \nFor the complete details on the Stagecoach 400 route\, check out the official route page.

Expect some rugged and remote singletrack on the longer two options with more than a handful of water crossings throughout all routes. \nThe general recommendation is a hardtail mountain bike with 2.2″ tires or bigger\, but we’ve seen all sorts of creative rigs. Many have used this as a testing ground for a Tour Divide set-up\, including last year’s female winner Meghan Hakkinen! This is also a singlespeeder’s delight\, with a growing field each year\, including more than 15 riders in 2024.

They are the B-side of the territory\, spaces that are less considered but very valuable. There where life is expressed live\, without tourist mediation. \nThe Gran Vertical is the heir\, daughter or little sister of the CAT700. They share the essence. As with the CAT700\, you can choose the option that suits you best: a gravel route\, or a version on narrow roads\, where slowness\, effort and contemplation are the main ingredients. \nNew start/finish point. For the 2025 edition\, we are inaugurating a route and a start/finish point. This year we are heading to Segorbe\, in the Valencian Community\, to head towards the highlands of Teruel\, visiting the peaks of Javalambre and Peñarroya\, both over 2.000 meters.

You can leave a bag with all this at the central checkpoint and pick up what you need each time you come through. The central checkpoint is a safe environment inside a warm village hall where cyclists can sleep and store all their essentials. There will always be a race organizer on site to give guidance and support to the competitors. You will never be too far from safety\, and there are easier more direct routes back to the central point. The varying distances are designed to allow the normal club cyclist to take on the adventure of an ultra-cycle without the need to commit to years of preparation or buying new expensive gear.
