This is not an organized or sanctioned event in any way. It’s simply a group of friends out to ride their bikes on the same route at the same time. We’ll probably compare times afterwards, but more importantly, we’ll compare experiences—the highs and lows the trail and mountains offered us.
The Arizona Trail 300 is a race similar to The Grand Loop and The Great Divide Race. All we provide is a route, a start time and tabulation of results. Period. There is no race organization, no checkpoints, no support system, nothing. You are completely on your own, just as you would be if you chose to ride the Arizona Trail on any other day.
