The best test of your winter fitness 💪

About
Silver City is the gateway to some of the best gravel in the the Loess Hills. Connected via the Wabash Trace nature trail, you can get from Council Bluffs in just 14 miles of beautiful rails to trails covered in shaded tree cover. Great for a good zone 2 workout before you hit the first 5 miles of rollers on the Silver City Century route. From there you get to visit exotic Iowa locations like, Macedonia, Henderson, and Willow Slough along a network of Class B and minimum maintenance roads. If the weather behaves (which is frankly a 50/50 chance) you'll get an amazing tailwind at some point and some head winds or cross winds that might have you questioning your life choices. But, at the end of the route there is guaranteed to be some great food and friendly faces welcoming you back to downtown Silver City.
Included in your race pace registration:
- Post-race meal ticket
- Number plate and timing
- Clearly marked route, downloadable queue sheet, and GPX files
- Aid station with water and snacks
- Event photography
- Some good memories and fun!

Sweeper
Saturday, May 17, 2025
Sweeper are our favorite people and riders and racers love them. Interested in being loved by all, well than this is the job for you.
As a sweeper, your job is to ride the course and support any rider that might be stopped along the course. You stay behind the last rider and make sure that everyone is off the course. You also pick up the signs we use to mark the course. It's a great role for someone that loves helping people, enjoys driving in some of the most beautiful parts of Iowa, and can help folks load a bicycle onto a truck or bike rack. We do use MMR, Class B, and dirt roads, so you should be comfortable traversing "sketchy" areas.
Aid Station 1
Saturday, May 17, 2025
Aid stations are the oasis of support and refueling on a gravel race. At the basic level, you're there to make sure folks get the food and drink they need. But, the best aid station hosts know how to make that experience their own to cheer and encourage racers to have the best day in the saddle.

Like to give people stuff and check names off of lists? Than this is the job for you. The night before the race, folks drop by to grab their bib, check-in, pick up shirts and swag, and hang out. It's a great time and it's fun to meet all the folks excited for the race.
