Enduro:

Start: 9:00 am

The start and finish will be directly across Hwy 64 from the Stomping Grounds. You may ride your bike from the camping/signup area with no need to trailer. The course is 50 ground miles. Don't let the length fool you, there are plenty of solid trails with checks positioned to give you a couple of long sections so you'll get your money's worth.

Timekeeping will be the regular system.

Main gas is 16 ground miles from the start. The gas trailer will leave shortly after 9:00 and be returned to the Stomping Grounds after the last rider has cleared main gas

Opt gas is available at 19 ground miles after Main Gas. No gas trailer will be provided for optional gas. You can get a Gas Map at sign-up.
