Race route
Normally, the race route follows the 25 miles from the north side of Hillsboro North Dakota to Caledonia and back and features two rest stops along the route.
This year, in addition to our group race, those who cannot join us in Hillboro can log individual rides on Strava. If you don’t have Strava, you can submit a max of 25 miles through a web form in April.
You may log your miles, and have them contribute with our annual competition with NDSU on Strava or our website. Any miles, whether it be 1, 5 or 25 or more, can count. You can do your miles on an indoor or outdoor bike on April 25-26.

If you fund-raise more than $250 for the Bike Race your registration fee is waved.
Fundraising is easy online with the Just Giving platform.
If you don’t fund raise, an entry fee of $30 is required at registration to cover the cost of the event jersey, and managing the event.
