This is a self-supported bikepacking ride where participants will attempt to complete a set course for the fastest time. These courses are challenging and riders assume all risks.
For a qualifying time, racers must ride the entire course, can purchase supplies from local businesses along the way during public open hours, and can camp or stay in hotels that are publicly available to all participants.
Riders will register for a satellite tracker on the Follow My Challenge platform ($30 personal $80 rental), with tracker signup available in September. The public will be able to follow rider progress along the routes via an online tracking map. Register or rent a tracker at https://form.jotform.com/followmychallengeusa/mountaineer-monster
A rider packet with more details will be sent out in June to participants who have filled out the Letter of Intent form: https://forms.gle/kazFdQ96JFpV7eiJ9
