The "Round the Clock" 24 hour event is a team relay mountain bike race, beginning at noon on Saturday and ending at noon on Sunday. Teams compete for medals, prizes and bragging rights.
Plan your Memorial Day weekend now and make the first 3 day weekend of the summer seriously memorable. We'll give you a weekend of camping, mountain biking, laughing, huffing and puffing
that you'll never forget. Go it alone or get a team together with your friends, their friends and anyone else who wants to have nothin' but fun for 2 solid days. We'll start you off at
High Noon on Saturday and you'll be going round and round for 24 hours, straight on through the wee hours of the night and back into day again on Sunday.
