At the end of the the first dirt / gravel section, riders enter Transition 1. Relay teams out fresh legs into the race. Transition racers switch bikes and single steed riders blast straight through or switch wheels. So many options. Plenty of decisions. But fewer rules and an emphasis on the rider and equipment.

Day 2. For those hardy souls with something left in the bottom of the tank, this 2nd day, morning race, The Mixed Surface Showdown, is stripped back to the bones. Race over single track and various (indescribable) gravel style surfaces on a 8.5 mile loop. 850 feet of elevation gain per lap. Timing comes from Strava and the three visible leading male and female riders after two laps, turn a third lap and compete for the win. Winner takes all and it’s a one bike race - and non-motorized bike.

Feel like racing something different and unique? One bike. 90 miles over paved roads, northwestern gravel, dirt dual-track, and sublime single track. The Best of Both.
