Curious what makes the Great Western Reroute so special? Join our Advance Missions and find out firsthand.
We're deploying this strategic Scouting Party ahead of the May 16 main event, delivering a 40-mile taste of what makes the 9th annual GWR our most ambitious edition yet. Not just a recon ride; this is a standalone adventure designed to prepare both your mind and machine for what's to come.
This Advance Mission 2 ventures northward, exploring the challenging climbs and rewarding descents that have earned GWR its reputation for uncompromising route design. Each mission offers strategic intelligence on equipment choices, pacing strategies, and technical sections you'll want to know about before the big day.
Ride starts rolling at 8:30AM. This is a self-supported mission (with key water stops marked on the RWGPS routes). Subscribe and join our Strava Club for the latest updates.
