THE WATERMOO

  • Dexter United States (map)

ULTRA COURSE: 111 Miles

EVENT WEBSITE

THE WATERMOO is a 111-mile gravel bike "race" on mostly gravel, some tarmac and a road that is no longer a road with a river crossing in the farmlands of southeastern Michigan. To successfully complete THE WATERMOO requires one to work hard and patiently like the water oxen that once roamed the land many years ago. THE WATERMOO will be an honest challenge for most and something riders will be proud of completing.

DATE - Saturday, August 12th, 2023

START - 7:11am

START/FINISH LOCATION - Jolly Pumpkin + Kitchen - 2319 Bishop Circle E, Dexter, MI 48130

COURSE - Is mostly gravel, some tarmac and a road that is no longer a road with a river crossing in the farmlands of southeastern Michigan. The dirt roads can be hilly at times and some of the pavement is smoking fast. THE ROUTE WILL NOT BE MARKED AND IS OPEN TO TRAFFIC. You will need to upload the route to your Garmin (GPS device) so you know where you are going. The course is open to traffic and all rules of the road must be followed at all times. About 3/4 into the ride all riders will be required to check-in and refuel if needed at the Adams Sports Medicine Feed Station.

ONE FLAVOR - THE WATERMOO is one distance. 111.88-miles. No less, no more. THE WATERMOO has just one category. No less, no more. You pick your weapon (gravel, road, mtb, fat bike, etc) of choice. If you're looking for an easy race this race is probably not your cup of tea.
