The 99 Miles of Bad Road Gravel Race returns to Hardy on Saturday, September 12 and it's not too late to get in on the action.
The registration deadline is August 15 and there is a registration link is in the comments.
From the organizers:
99 Miles of Bad Road is a gravel bicycle race starting and ending in Hardy, Arkansas. Expect every road surface type, with roughly 80% being unpaved.
Don't let the elevation profile of the maps fool you - expect every bit of 100 feet of elevation gain per mile. These are relentless rolling hills with an occasional punchy climb or sketchy descent. Everything from mud, dirt, gravel, concrete bridges, clay, crushed limestone, creek rocks, broken pavement, and more.
This route earns its name. All finishers will receive a cool memento, plus unique custom awards for the Top 3 in each category!
