Event Details
The 2021 race will be a single 50K loop at 18 Road
Ride the Edge!
This is not just the name of the trail but it’s a description of the new Sarlaac Attack 50K course. Uphill grinds, beautiful singletrack and some grueling hike-a-bike sections. You’ll ride on the edge of cliffs and the edge of your endurance limits. This course is tougher than the previous course with 3,400′ of climbing and WAY more rewarding.
Do heights excite you? You’re going to love the namesake section looking down at the start line area. Riding the Edge Loop!
This fun 50K course is an early season test of stamina and gives a reason to train through the winter. With the combination of many short ups and downs and a big climb up the mesa, this event will definitely test your fitness. Racers will have three aid stations and will receive a finisher’s memento and age group awards.
While weather is never a sure thing, typically in the Fruita area at this time of year, you can expect temperatures between 70 and 80 degrees with very little chance of rain.
