Basecamp Location: Hickory Hill Milk, (150 Faulkner Mountain Rd, Edgefield, SC, 29824)
Accommodations: Riders may choose to camp, car camp or bring an RV as a part of their registration. Riders can also book alternative accommodations of BASC at their own expense.
Routes: THIS IS A MIXED-USE RIDE. Participants can expect 3 days of moderately challenging terrain ranging from gravel, pavement, chip, seal, and maybe even a little dirt. With the varied terrain, our 2024 routes are friendly for a majority of types of bikes including gravel, cross, road, and mountain bikes. We recommend anything you are comfortable riding 20-50+ miles of varied terrain on. Expect different routes each day highlighting the unique scenery surrounding our basecamp!
Long Route: 50-60 miles per dayShort Route: 20-30 miles per day
Ride Format: Each day, the ride will start and end at our BASC Basecamp. 3-Day, 2-Day, and 1-Day ride options are available.
Rest Stops: Rest stops will be placed along each bike course. Locations will be stocked with water and an electrolyte-type drink, along with appropriate cycling snacks. If you require specific food or beverage, please plan to bring this with you on your ride!
Best Bike Options: Given the terrain type and BASC being a mixed-use ride experience; mountain, gravel, and cyclocross bicycles are strongly recommended. Bicycles that have wider, knobby-type tires will roll over gravel/dirt roads with greater ease. Road and hybrid bikes can be ridden at your own discretion.
E-Bikes are welcome – please follow the recommendations above regarding bike types.
Note: You will be responsible for charging your bike throughout the weekend. At this time, access to charging stations is not confirmed so please plan accordingly. If you have extra battery banks available, please bring those with you. We will post any updates asap.
Please do not plan on riding a triathlon, beach cruiser, or any bicycle with skinny tires and no tread. We also do not recommend single-speed bicycles, but rather bikes with gears.Helmets are required.
Mechanical Support: While we will have support vehicles on each bike route, that can assist in changing a flat or perhaps a minor mechanical issue, it is strongly suggested you bring the necessary tubes, tools, and supplies you need for your specific bike type. The event may not have the items you require at the time to service your bike.
Children: These routes are not recommended for children under 14 years old. If you are unsure whether these routes are right for your child, please email us at [email protected]. Anyone 17 and under can register as a "Child Rider".
Refund Policy: We do not offer refunds.
