Tally Tango Bikepacking Challenge 2025

Singletrack Samurai Productions Presents a Tallahassee Bikepacking Creation:

The Tallahassee Tango routes are the first ultra-endurance bikepacking routes in the Florida panhandle. The routes are centered around the state capital and are composed of singletrack, scenic double track, coastal levees, and forest roads.

There are four routes available.

The Tango Original 165 - This route offers many of the same features of the 177 route, just by passes Aucilla.

The Tango 177 - Takes riders on the Eastern Side of the Aucilla River and offers riders options to see some of Florida's Finest Rapids.

The Tango 277 - features all the awesomeness of the 177 route but offers riders a chance to go through Tate's Hell and Back!

The Tango LiTe, aka the Tango through Hell 230 miles, is a mostly Gravel Route option for those riders wanting to see this beautiful area and avoid 99% of the singletrack found on the original route. LiTe does not mean easy.

What you are purchasing is the route information. Once you purchase that info, it is yours to use and ride the route at your leisure. Everyone who purchases the route information will be invited to participate in the kick-off event that marks the official beginning of the Florida Bikepacking season. Route information will be sent on August 1st. Once the information is sent, no refunds can be offered, and there is no changing of routes unless you purchase that additional information. In other words, plenty of time to make up your mind! Again, what you are purchasing is the information; there is no transfer or refunds after August 1st.

We ride this route for enjoyment and appreciation of the beautiful wildlife corridors located in the area. For fun, riders can choose to have their finishing times compared to other participants. Those who choose to want to have their times compared agree to follow the rules of ultra self supported challenges and to be tracked using trackleaders. Trackleaders offers rentals or the use of a tracking app, or you can use your own Spot, InReach, or Zolio. Additionally, Riders who choose to have their times compared can ride solo or as a team.

Everyone who gets an invite to the kick-off event will also be invited to a Friday Night Dinner, have access to a group camp, and receive a Patch.

All proceeds from the event are used to continue the work of organizing amazing one-of-a-kind events and help support the effort to map new routes and steward the existing routes. This is a full-time job, and additional Donations are always welcome and appreciated.

I hope you join us on October 4th or purchase the information and experience the route on your own.
