Sundown Rundown isn’t just a race. It’s a battle against the clock.
Trail Circuit Run: 1.6-ish miles to +35.7 miles. We run until it's done!
One start. One course. A lot of shared effort.
The clock shrinks, the laps stack up, and the group naturally reshapes itself. Between rounds, there’s time to catch your breath, share a laugh, and decide to go out one more time.
However far you make it, you’re part of the night and part of how end Summer Camp on a high note.
And when it’s all over share burgers, s'mores, stories, and celebrate the night’s together.
One winner but many memories to create. How far will you go before time runs out?

What To Bring:
~We highly recommend a mountain bike or a hybrid bike for Mountain Bike Camp.
~ Ideally, the bike should have shifting gears, *knobby tires (no slick or bald tires), well-fitted, and in great working condition.
*Please take your bike to a bike shop for a tune up before camp begins: a bike that breaks on the trail can be a real bummer. Make sure the brakes work, the chain is not rusty or stiff, the tires are in good condition (no dry-rot) and all the nuts and bolts are secure.
~A well-fitted helmet in great condition. No cracks or dents- protect those noggins.
~A water bottle (or two) or a hydration pack
~Closed-toe, secure shoes. No sandals, flip-flops-or crocs.
~Snacks (none sharing). Nutritious, skip the high sugar. The rider is the engine, proper nutrition before and during camp will make for a better experience.
~Personal medicine if needed: Inhalers, Epipens..etc.
For Adventure Bike Camp: most bikes are great. While a mountain bike is ideal, if you have a traditional single-gear bike, we can work with you! Reach out to us [email protected], give us a heads up.
Highly Recommended:
~protective eyewear
~sunscreen & bug/tick repellent
~bike gloves
~padded bike shorts ?TRUST US!
Please reach out to your local bike shop now, to make sure your kiddo has a great camp experience later!
*All bikes should have a tune-up at least once a year.
Doing so saves money, keeps your bike in good condition, can prevent mechanical failures, and offers safety and security while riding your bike.
*Make sure: the brakes work, the tires are NOT dry rotted and have good tread, fill up the tires with air to make sure the inner-tubes are in great working order. ~~*If the tires loose air, that means the bike needs new inner-tubes.
*Make sure the chain is not rusty, it has been properly oiled and moves freely along the gears.
*If your bike has gears, please make sure all the gars can work, and that the chain works well on the gears.
Don't hesitate to take your bike to a bike shop to have them take a look and see how they can help you get your bike in great working order!

DETAILS
(SLIGHTLY) NEW COURSE FOR 2026!
Tour of High Bridge 2026 Course
Building on last year's course, thanks to some newly paved roads that weren't usable last year, we've added three turns and about 50 meters of finishing straight which eliminates last year's high-speed final turn.

PROMOTER CONTACT: High Bridge Recreation Committee:
Ride beautiful, scenic routes (35, 65 and 100 miles) taking you through flat to gently rolling farmland in central Delaware as the route follows lesser traveled roads from Middletown to Clayton, Hartly, points south, and back. All routes will be marked with route arrows and have Support & Gear (SAG) until 5:00 pm. There are rest stops along the routes at regular intervals, five on the Century route!
Because of the flat, gently rolling terrain that the route follows, this event has become a “right-of-passage” for many cyclists as they take on the challenge of their “First Century Ride“.
