Category Description:

Self Supported ITT - Individual Time Trials can be attempted at any time. Options include East to West and West to East. Live tracking is a requirement to log an official time. This format essentially follows "Tour Divide" type rules. No outside assistance allowed unless available to all who attempt the route. The clock is always running until the route is completed.

Self Supported Group Departure (Full RAT and Mini RAT) - Same rules as ITT but with a specific start time with our once a year Group Departure. 10/10/20 from Texarkana. Overnight in Paris, TX may possibly included and allowed for this group without penalty for outside assistance if virus conditions allow for it. Self Supported Group Departure riders also have the option to start on Friday and overnight with the supported riders in New Boston if they aren't "racing". Racers looking for an official time will start from Texarkana, AR Saturday.

Mini RAT riders are welcome to ride any distance at any pace. We can provide routes towards DFW from Paris, Bonham or any point further west.
