There are two courses to choose from or you can do both. The short course is 22 miles for beginner dirtbikers. The courses are single track only, UTV's and ATV's are excluded. Sorry there are NO UTVs or side by sides allowed due to insurance policy requirements. Ride at your own pace. The long course is an additional 40 miles. You will refuel after the short course at the parking lot if you need to. The course is marked similar to that of a typical desert race. Ribbon will be placed as often as possible. Turns will be marked with arrows and cautions will be marked with blue exclamation marks. Please be on the lookout for markings so you don't get lost. There will be sweep riders at the end of the course, so if you're tired and can't finish, they will help you along. RIDE REQUIREMENTS ALL RIDERS MUST WEAR A HELMET.

Please follow the Leave no trace principles https://lnt.org/why/7-principles/ VOLUNTEERS Volunteers are desperately needed and greatly appreciated! Here are just a few examples of the tasks you can help with. Event setup will begin at 6:00 am such as setting up tents, tables, and chairs. Starting at 7:00 am, the event team will be asked to begin by getting signatures from all people attending the event. Another group of volunteers will stage themselves at various locations on the ride course to check in riders throughout the day and make sure riders cross roads safely. There will also be a team of experienced riders who will need to ride both courses to verify that all riders have completed the course. Be prepared to stick around after the raffle to help with tearing down the tents, folding tables and chairs, and loading them all into trucks. WHY FUNDRAISE?
