Laramie Range Epic

Welcome to the 26th Laramie Range Epic!

About the Race
If you have ridden this course, you know what to expect, if you haven’t….what are you
waiting for? No highway crossings or pavement–all dirt, all day!

As always, the loop will include the familiar Happy Jack and Vedauwoo areas, winding
you through beautiful rock formations on primitive trails and fast forested single track. All
at elevations over 7,500 feet, you’ll race over high grass plains and down through
serene aspen and pine forests.

With aid stations every 10 miles stocked with fresh food, water, performance nutrients,
cowbells and the Laramie Range Epic’s legendary volunteers, this is Wyoming’s
premiere mountain bike event.

Racers have two course options:
– The One and Done –
A one lap, 32 mile loop (4,184 ft of climbing/descending all over 7500 ft in
elevation) winding through the Pole Mountain trail system. Racers will be
supported by the famous Laramie Range Epic Volunteers and sponsors who
have made this race as fun and approachable as it is challenging and
competitive.

– The Laramie Range Epic –
The same course with a second lap. This is type two fun. It is going to hurt, but in
a really good way. Same great support on both laps, and the beer at the end of
the race has been on ice longer.

After-Party
People come for the race, but stay for the after-party! Real food and real refreshments
served by real people. Everyone is welcome to join the party with live music, food
trucks, awards ceremony, and an Epic raffle!

History
The Epic originated in 1998 as the Laramie Enduro, starting in historic Downtown
Laramie, Wyoming. At that time, the race began by climbing 1300 feet out of the
Laramie valley and into the stunning landscape that graces our backyard to the
east–the Pole Mountain Trail System. Over the years this race has transformed to
maintain a traditional approach to a cross country race, while adapting with the
evolution of mountain bike culture. We’re still racing some of the original trails and we
remain committed to hosting a high-quality, fun event that attracts riders from across the
country.
