The OLD 50K route will join the 49'r through the full classic Equalizer loop through Warrenton and all of the most awesome and refreshing creek crossings from yesteryear. Choose either the 49'r or the STATE CHAMPIONSHIP ROUTE which is the same 49 miles and dont worry, it still hits the Kersten Krusher 10 miles from the finish, but only 1 lap of that this year.
ALL STATE CHAMPIONSHIP CONTENDERS will race the Official State Championship 49 mile course. Missouri State Champion Winners Jersey Included for categoy winners. 1st, 2nd and 3rd place podiums and medals and everything else the EQUALIZER offers is available to both 49'r and STC registrants.
State Championship Contenders....You MUST have a current USAC ANNUAL licence AND be a resident of Missouri.
You do not need any licence to race the 49'r. Your one day USAC licence is covered within the registration costs so you can just show up and ride although we will need the 1 Day USAC Form filled out..Easy.
USAC points are not required or needed to register for a certain State Championship Gravel category.
Regardless of your choice, all get the opportunity to hammer the fast road sections peppered by limestone gravel through the rolling countryside of Marthasville and Warrenton through the Aid stations and checkpoints back into racers village.
State Championship category winners will get The Roy Doskal Realty Equalizer State Championship Jersey and Mo State Medals. Also Custom medals for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place at the Podium Ceremony in the Age Group categories.
The Equalizer is fast enough for the pavement pounder, yet technical enough for the gravel grinders, and most importanter.. Fun and safe for everyone. Aid station for both distances at mile 33. (water/ice/sports drink) Bring your sag bag if you need food you cant haul. We will have it ready for you there. Trailing/roaming sag as well.
