A brief preview of what you will be up against

The DP26 is jam-packed with what you love: gravel, climbing, and lot's of it! At 81.8 miles with 9,100 feet elevation gain, 59.4 miles with 6,500 feet elevation gain, or 28.5 miles with 2,900 feet elevation gain, these are tough courses! We have incorporated many classic DP dirt roads and climbs that have defined the event for 11 years, and added a few new ones!
