Welcome back National Ultra Endurance Series riders! We are proud to be a part of the growing national endurance excitement offering arguably the toughest race on the circuit! Can anyone knock off the reining 5-time champion? Wait, haven’t I heard this story somewhere before? Lance…??

Rocky Mountain Ultra Series competitors The B-100 will again be the RMU Series point’s race. We included the B68 last year, but will return to the original format of counting the B100 only. We have shortened the race just a bit to make it easier to finish, and feel that this longer race is a good complement for the Series.

So why not take the test this summer? Welcome to Colorado’s premier off-road endurance race, the Breckenridge 100 Cross Country Mountain Bike Challenge. Featuring Solo and Three Person Team Competitions, this incredible course climbs 13,719 feet over its 100 miles and will remind you of what backcountry mountain biking is all about. With Solo and Team categories, this is a perfect opportunity for you to expand your boundaries. So start studying…. the test is waiting for you on July 17th! Featuring three distinct cloverleaf loops and the full spectrum of mountain terrain, this course will inspire solo and team competitors alike. DoMyEssay.com can help to write an essay on this topic

Featuring an inspiring, sprawling course nestled between 3 ski resorts, participants will face a unique challenge of strength and fortitude. The distinct clover-leaf loops offer team competitors the opportunity to strategize their efforts and pick which loop each participant will tackle. Our goal is to provide you a unique and rewarding experience in cross-country competition. Our renowned course architect has linked together an amazing, interconnecting network of backcountry trails, dirt roads, double track and bike paths that will take you far beyond the typical boundaries of endurance racing. From start to finish, you will be both pampered and pushed to your limit at the same time. You’ll cross the Continental Divide three times, climb 12,000 foot passes and forge high mountain streams while all the time returning to the support and encouragement of our staff, friends and teammates who are waiting for you at Carter Park in historic downtown Breckenridge.

Camping! Free camping is available on Tiger Road again, White River National Forest, just east of Highway 9, past the Breckenridge Golf Course about two miles. Loop 2 goes right by it on Tiger Road. There are fantastic spots along the Swan River, or along the North Fork or Middle Fork.

Showers: From 3:30-9:00 pm, complimentary post-race showers are available at Steven C. Ice Arena on Boreas Pass Road. Please take off your cycling shoes before entering the building and wear flip-flops or bare feet so we don’t track dirt inside.

Backcountry Ethics / Littering: Littering of any kind is strictly prohibited during the race. You will be disqualified if there is a report of you not respecting this rule. The Forest Service has been extremely supportive and it is imperative that we show them we can hold an event like this and be good stewards of our trails, and the backcountry. Please help us to gain permission to host this unique event again next year and use these wonderful trails in the future by pocketing your gels, bars, baggies, bottles, tubes, etc. DO NOT THROW ANYTHING ON THE GROUND! Pack it in, pack it out! If you absolutely must discard something before returning to Carter Park, do so with a course marshal. Thank you in advance for your cooperation with this very important policy. Ride on!

Backcountry Weather: This race takes place at altitudes above 10,000 feet and you will enjoy some of the most pristine riding terrain in Colorado. With that said, you can expect to experience a wide spectrum of weather conditions. Be prepared for the worst. At least have extra gear, clothing, and supplies stashed at Carter Park so you can adjust to changing conditions. Obviously sun-screen is mandatory. SPF 30+ is recommended.

Race Preparation / Hydration: This will be a long day in the saddle, and therefore you must give your body all the love you can by drinking a lot during the race. You will be at altitude and therefore need more liquids than usual. Pre-race hydration is also important. Drink plenty of water the day before to hydrate your muscles. A chamois cream or balm of some type is recommended.

Course marking: We have done our best to mark the course so you can follow it. Orange and black arrows, and orange flagging tape will guide you. However, you may need to use common sense and some navigation skills of your own. The basic rule of thumb is do not turn unless instructed to do so. Follow the tracks of those in front of you. Each rider will receive a map and course directions in their race packet to take with them on course. Refer to this when you need to. Familiarize yourself with the course and have a good sense of where you’re going before race day.

Course Description: All racers must complete their conquest before Saturday evening at 7:30PM. Cut-off checkpoints will be established to ensure no one is on course after 7:30PM. Racers must pass through the Boreas Pass checkpoint by 4:30 pm to complete loop 3. Aid stations and medical coverage will support racers during the event. Carter Park will be Event Headquarters, where the clover-leaf style loops converge, and team rider’s exchange.

Aid Stations: There will be Aid Stations on course (see course maps and descriptions), about every 10 miles, stocked with water, Heed, Perpetuem, and a selection of energy foods, bars, gels. You can also leave drop bags for delivery to a particular aid station.

Loop Maps: Please stay tuned to this event page as we make updates. The course should be close to final by June 29th, but we reserve the right to make last minute changes.

Volunteering: A rewarding opportunity is also available to those non-racers who are interested in joining our volunteer race crew. You will assist with registration, timing and scoring, aid stations, marshalling and more. Race course marshals are needed to help direct racers along course during the race. It is approximately 5 hours of time, and each volunteer will receive a crew t-shirt, lunch, and great satisfaction in knowing they are helping raise money for the TAME foundation and the Summit County hippotherapy program which uses horses as riding therapy for children with disabilities. A race like the Breckenridge 100 relies heavily on volunteer support and your contribution is sincerely appreciated.
