Here's one for the crazy people. The Pisgah Mountain Bike Adventure Race ...
...will be held deep in the Pisgah National Forest, one of the most beautiful, rugged, and unforgiving areas in the nation. There will be little to no water or food support on course. Once you leave the start/finish you are on your own. There will be no drops, sag wagons, or other outside support available. Be prepared for any circumstances you may encounter including, but not limited to: medical emergencies, navigational errors, inoperable equipment, wild animals, and stinging/poisonous insects and plants. PLEASE DO NOT UNDER-ESTIMATE THE EXTREME DIFFICULTY OF THIS EVENT.'Cause, y'see, it's a 50-70 mile race through the wilderness, of a forest, on a bike. By yourself. I say anyone who would do that is nuts, but, y'know, more power to 'em.
