Our team hosted the National Championships this past weekend, and the energy was off the charts! With a large crowd and great competition, it was an event to remember. A standout moment? The Heat C race, where we saw one of the largest cycling packs in years—over 60 athletes riding together for three laps (pictured).

Looking forward to seeing everyone in March 2025!

Registration opened today for our 2025 event and in a big way!

To our alumni, we hope you look back fondly on your first "Clermont." Watching this event grow year after year has been incredibly special, and we’re so grateful for your continued support and for spreading the word.

To our current athletes, it’s thrilling to see the U25 EDR and Youth races sell out faster than ever today! If you didn’t get a chance to register, please consider adding your name to our waitlist.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping to elevate our sport and inspire the future dreams of our athletes.
