Both Intrepid and Express routes finish on top of the highest year-round pass in Sierra Nevada! #conquerMtRose
The Intrepid riders will summit from the Reno side, while Express riders will tackle the Tahoe face. Shuttles will await on top, or you can join the group ride and bonus adventure back to Northstar for awards, tacos, after party, and that soft bed.
New segments will be in place for 2018, and you won't have to gun it right out of the gate on Brockway Summit. We'll give you a little more time to warm those muscles before dropping the hammer in Sand Harbor.
The road rally format is the perfect blend of competition and camaraderie. Race the segments, play to your strengths with flat and climbing segments available. Outside of the segments, there is no penalty to enjoy the scenery, lounge at a vista or aid station, and catch up with friends, that is until the next segments starts.
The High Fives Foundation supports the dreams of mountain action sports athletes by raising injury prevention awareness while providing resources and inspiration to those who suffer life-altering injuries.
"We are excited to be working with Pete and the cycling community," says Executive Director Roy Tuscany. "It is great to be expanding our outreach through a strong community, athlete and road cycling event. We are looking forward to September."

SEGMENT 1: SAND HARBOR
The Sand Harbor segment begins just outside of Incline Village and is mostly flat giving advantage to bigger riders with power. Drafting will help you here. This segment is 5.1 miles with 270' of gain.
SEGMENT 2: CARSON
This one's for the engines. We'll have a flat segment through the Carson Desert to give the powerhouses a chance to bury the hatchet.
SEGMENT 3: MOUNT ROSE
The highest year-round pass in the Sierra Nevada topping out at 8,900'. After you've already covered more than 60 miles, the Mt. Rose climb is 4,200' and 16.5 miles. We'll let you warm up a bit and time the last 11 miles and 3000' to the top. It's big. Really big.
SECRET CLIF BAR SEGMENT (NON-TIMED)
At the finish on Rose, we will have shuttles to bring you back to Northstar, but you can decide to join Pete and Clif Founder Gary Erickson for a group ride back to Northstar along a secret road with a bonus (non-timed) segment!
