Buffalo 50

Introducing the "Buffalo 50" - South Dakota's mountain biking spectacle where you can either prove your solo endurance or share the madness with friends in a relay.

 

Starting at Granite Sports in the quaint town of Hill City, this race isn't just a test of your biking prowess; it's a two-lap adventure through some of the wildest trails around. Each loop spans 25 miles of pure, unadulterated fun (or terror, depending on your perspective).

 

For the solo riders, it's a double dose of dirt trails where the dust might convince you your bike is secretly a magic carpet. Then, there's Trail 40, where every bump is a reminder that "smooth" is just a concept here.
 

The Mickelson Trail offers a scenic interlude, but don't let the beauty fool you; the buffalo might be watching, contemplating whether to join in or just laugh from the sidelines.
 

But if you're wise, you'll opt for the relay, because sharing this journey means you only have to tackle one loop of this madcap adventure. Tag-team with your buddy, pass the baton (or rather, the bike), and share stories of near-misses, unexpected wildlife encounters, and the sheer joy of finishing one loop to watch your teammate take on the other.
