UPDATED:  By popular demand the iRide Ultracross will now be 75mi rather than the original 100mi.  Lots of climbing descending on great dirt roads!!!

iRide Ultracross-  Cross season is upon us!  Time to dust off your  trusty cross machine that’s been hanging in the rafters for the past 6 months and join me for an epic base building day.  The iRide Ultracross is a 100mile ride on some of the best dirt roads you’ll ever roll your knobbies over.  I will have water/food stations along the ride but no sag so be prepared to ride.  There will be bailout options at regular intervals along the route if you need to get home to family or your legs simply turn to jelly.  The route will have some long climbs and long descents with spectacular views of Lake Koocanusa and the Yaak.  The roads are buttery smooth right now…almost doable on a road bike if you have 28cc tires.  An mtb with fast rolling treads would work as well.  THIS IS A FUN RIDE NOT A RACE!  If you are ready to be spoiled by the limitless dirt roads and beautiful weather mark this Saturday on you calander.
