This event is an effort of our 501c3 club to carry forward the tradition of a gravel event in the area this time of year, which had prior been the END-TICK, now retired.

Traditionally this event has been a gravel ride, and we want to maintain that format for those who’d like to participate in a ride. We’d also like to maintain that there will be a time window to start your ride. We will track your time for those riders. See the time windows in each distance.

We’d also like to provide the opportunity for those that would like a mass start with others and/or compete and race against others with a set start time for their event. Those start times will be the listed start time for each distance. Podium awards will be provided for 1st, 2nd and 3rd for mass start participants.

As with many gravel events, this will be self-supported. For the 2 longer distances, there will be opportunities to refuel and get water at some small town(s) where you can purchase food/drink from convenience store and/or locations where you will be able to get water.
