We try and make it as easy as possible. Register early, save a little dough. Register later? Don’t sweat it; it’s a point of pride around here to produce what is STILL the least expensive mountain bike stage race in the whole flippin’ multiverse, even at standard pricing.

Epic’s refund and deferral policy is best in class. It gives you your money back up to 120 days out, no questions asked. Riders can also defer for up to two years, at any time with no monetary penalty. Need to transfer your entry to another rider? We gotcha. You can even purchase additional race insurance for a nominal fee during checkout if you’d like. Here’s a little peek behind the curtain; none of the above-listed concessions are the atom-splitting ordeal that some would have you believe.

So we choose to be human about life’s complications. Because sh!t, as they say, happens.

Sometimes life gets in the way. Children graduate, legs get broken. Loved ones undergo the unexpected. We’re not gonna punish you for that. The universe can be capricious. It clearly has a mischievous (bordering on sadistic) sense of humor.

Because of our generous refund/deferral policy, we always open our following year early. After all, we need a digital holding pen for the lovelorn, the proud parents of the graduates, and the mending tib-fibs. As we near race day each year, you’ll see info for the subsequent year posted alongside the current year.

Epic delivers the experience of a lifetime. 6 days of back-of-beyond trail riding that will put your gear, your fitness and your mental strength to the test. On-site you’ll enjoy one of the best mountain bike courses ever designed. 6 of ’em, actually. In a row.

You’ll work, eat and sweat. You’ll cuss, rage and laugh. And you’ll take home an indelibly etched memory of good times, big rides with great friends, and a sense of purpose and accomplishment. Because on Day 6, you’ll be crowned an official bad-ass. And you’ll draw upon THAT particular core of iron for the rest of your days.

Is it difficult? Yeah. Will you suffer? Also yes. But while Epic is one of endurance trail riding’s true monuments, it’s also fun as balls.

Saddle up.
