Chasing the Sun is not your typical race—it’s an endurance adventure built for grit, strategy and pure determination. Set on a 6km looped course, you’ll chase every mile against the clock. Choosing your challenge: 3 hours, 6 hours, or go sun up to sun down. Take it on solo or team up in duos, trios, or quads to keep the momentum rolling. Whether you’re pushing your personal limits or feeding off your team’s energy, every lap brings you closer to the ultimate test. How far can you go before the sun sets on your race?
Event details and schedule
Featuring a 36 Mile point to point course, the Prickly Pedal starts in Cave Creek in front of the Flat Tire Bike Shop, 6032 E Cave Creek Rd, Cave Creek, AZ 85331, and rides up through town to Spur Cross where you’ll join the Maricopa Trail all the way over to the finish line at Lake Pleasant Regional Park’s 10 Lane Boat Ramp. The event showcases the diversity of the Maricopa Trail and supports the Maricopa Trail and Park Foundation. Aggressive ascents and descents, grinding it out on the flats, rocks, water, sand, mud, and roller coaster runs are all part of the fun of this challenging course.
Besides being a challenging, exciting, fun race, why does the Prickly Pedal exist? To pour every dollar of race revenue into efforts that will add more pristine miles of Maricopa Trail for riders to enjoy. MT+PF envisions this event evolving into a world class, multi-day, endurance stage mountain bike race, drawing thousands of fans to the desert southwest.
The ride features numerous short, steep, rocky climbs and descents…some of which will require you to dismount and hike. This is not a race for the inexperienced – finish times for most racers are estimated at 3-4 hours. Be prepared for a long day in the saddle. This is a tough mountain bike race.

Medical Wilderness Adventure Race (MedWAR)
MedWAR Arizona is back and returning to the desert! The race features a refreshed format that blends trail running at Usery Mountain Regional Park with high-pressure medical and wilderness challenges that reward clear thinking as much as physical endurance. Teams of four will move across rugged Sonoran terrain while tackling realistic wilderness and resuscitation scenarios along the way, emphasizing teamwork, decision making, and performance under stress. Each team must successfully complete and demonstrate the required tasks before advancing.
This is an unassisted race with no support crew. Medical training is not required, though teams with wilderness or medical experience will be better prepared.
If you are looking for a meaningful challenge, want to compete alongside friends, and are ready to test your ability to think and act when the stakes rise, MedWAR Arizona is waiting!
