about
born on the love of a challenge for riding the Nashbar Road Alpha 5000 anywhere, a seed was planted. how about mixing a variety of terrains and give the rough road 100 an opportunity like none other. bring the roads to the people i say! so test your wits, test your will and see what the day brings. hell, if you have a Nashbar bring that!

raised in morris and growing up testing these very roads on my trusty Nashbar 5000, some gravel some not, it was always an adventure i wanted to share. my bike has changed but the spirit of these roads remains

unlikely paths crossed when we met, a good friend and a spark for this event started to flicker to life, event experience and nationwide cycling timing experience in all forms of bike racing made for a great fit
