Registration is Open!
Whether you ride an acoustic 26in hardtail, a carbon fiber e-bike, or want to split the ride in two with a friend, we want you to ride with us!
The Ride
This ride starts just north of Flagstaff and ends just south of the Grand Canyon. Transportation back to the start on SUNDAY morning is available for an extra fee (see below). If you wish to return earlier, you must provide your own transportation.
