SUMMARY:Ride/Race Across Texas Gravel Stage Race Party with Kevin Lee of Spinistry in North Texas
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”teammateRow”][vc_column width=”1/4″ el_class=”teammateImage”][vc_single_image image=”62937″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” image_hovers=”false”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″ el_class=”teammateDescription”][vc_row_inner el_class=”TeammateContent”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] \nFREE for Club Spinistry members! Click here for the RAT 1000 Facebook Discussion Group\n\n\nRAT 1000 Mile Gravel Stage Race\, RAT 1000 Self-Supported Group Departure for ITT\, RAT 1000 mile gravel stage party\, Mini RAT & Tiny RAT. Plan to join us because these will be memories that last forever. \nPlease note that the expectation is for all riders to adhere to the Traffic Codes for each state that they ride in at all times. Failure to operate bicycles safely and properly can lead to disqualification. Littering can lead to disqualification. Trespassing can lead to disqualification and might also get you shot. Don’t do any of these things. More details soon! \nPlanned RAT Stage Race/Party Distances (subject to modification). This is for the folks who want to travel as a group and gather together at the same overnight location each night. \nStage 1 Saturday\, 6 am Start from Texarkana\n140 miles\, 2852ft\, ends in Paris \nStage 2 Sunday Start TBD\n127 miles\, 3700ft\, ends in Denison \nStage 3 Monday Start TBD\n141 miles\, 4782ft\, ends in Henrietta \nStage 4 Tuesday Start TBD\n125 miles\, 2330ft\, ends in Vernon \nStage 5 Wednesday Start TBD\n104 miles\, 2417ft\, ends in Childress \nStage 6 Thursday Start TBD (please note\, this could change to Tulia)\n102 miles\, 4511ft\, ends in Silverton (camping only) \nStage 7 Friday Start TBD\n124 miles\, 2188ft\, ends in Vega \nStage 8 Saturday Start TBD\n139 miles\, 3333ft\, ends in Tucumcari \nSelf-supported ITT is essentially “Tour Divide” rules. Riders are only allowed to utilize assistance available to the general public under normal business and agency operating conditions. The clock starts as soon as the rider starts and doesn’t end until the rider finishes. Live tracking is required\, as well as publicly available tracking logs. Approved assistance exceptions are typically allowed during Group Depart week from approved “Trail Angels”. \nMini RAT is for anyone who wants to follow the RAT route with no expectation of completing the full route. Ride as many (or as few) as fits into your schedule. We have a single weekend route for people who want to pedal back to DFW: Mini RAT Day 1\, 140 Miles\, Texarkana to Paris\nMini RAT Day 2\, 110 miles Paris to Rowlett Train Station. \nThe Tiny RAT is a 150-mile lollipop from Farmersville to Paris and back\, which primarily utilizes the NETT. Saturday night overnight in Paris is included\, which offers the opportunity to socialize with the RAT riders as they come into Paris. Please note\, this is not an “easy” ride. 75 miles each day is likely to feel more like 100 on these sections of the NETT. Self-navigation capability is EXTREMELY important. We will provide the route\, but it will not be verified beforehand. It is likely that on-the-fly adjustments to the route may be needed\, particularly in the case of inclement weather. \n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
