EVENT DETAILS

Experience the beauty of the Black Hills via the George S. Mickelson Trail

 

Welcome to the Big Mick 2024!

This 109 mile ride takes place on America’s most scenic rails to trails conversion: The George S. Mickelson Trail. Enjoy a challenging day of historic exploration and unparalleled natural beauty as you embark on a cycling adventure like no other.

Pedaling through the heart of the Black Hills, participants will be captivated by our region’s rich history and picturesque landscapes. The trail passes through historic mining towns, over more than 100 bridges, and through three tunnels.

As the miles unfold, cyclists will be challenged by varying elevations and terrains, creating a sense of accomplishment with every hill conquered. The route culminates in the charming town of Edgemont, marking the completion of a monumental 109-mile journey - in one day!.

The Big Mick Century Ride isn’t just a cycling event; it’s an exploration
of the spirit and resilience that defines both cyclists and the historic landscape

they traverse. With its combination of natural beauty, historical significance,

and the thrill of the open road, this epic one-day event stands as a testament

to the enduring allure of the Mickelson Trail and the Black Hills.

Trail sweeps & SAG drivers will be available to support riders on event day.
