Total race distance will be 15 miles. We will ride and run the trail loop in a counterclockwise direction.

The dirt trail conditions can be affected by weather. In the case that the dirt trails cannot be used an alternate date will be chosen or the race cancelled
All proceeds from the race will go to fund the purchase and installation of a commercial grade bike repair station at the trail head. This station will be for public use. All excess funds will go to the forest preserve for improvements
