Borderlands 2024 is a wrap! Just 1 rider still on course doing an overnight camp. The riders enjoyed a mix of double track, singletrack, crushed limestone, the finest Alabama orange sand, and everything in between. Thanks to all of the participants for showing up to take on the challenge of Borderlands!

I also want to thank the bike shop employees for hosting again this year as well as Jernigan for the post ride bbq meal again. The support truly means a lot to me.

The routes are published and I'm stoked to share with you! I wish I could include every cool section in the area but there are just too many for only 200 miles. 🤯 Both routes offer a nice variety of challenges, surfaces types, and scenery. See you in 2 weeks!
