Long before the first participant arrives, there’s a crew out there making it happen.

Huge appreciation to every staff member, volunteer, medic, marshal and supporter who helped bring the event to life.

This stuff doesn’t happen without you.

These are the moments we love most.

👉 The nerves before the start.
👉 The mid-race grit.
👉 The finish line relief.
👉 The post-race laughs.

Every rider brings their own story to the weekend, and that’s what makes this community so special.

We’re still thinking about the smiles, the dirt, the cheers and the moments that made this one special.

Events like this are never just about the course. They’re about the people who show up, push themselves, support each other and create something bigger together.

Everyone has their moment out there.
😤A tough climb.
🤬A bad patch.
🥵A long day.

And there’s always someone beside you going through the same thing. That’s what makes it EPIC.

The best part of the day isn’t always on the bike.
