Trans South Dakota 700 Mile Unsupported Bikepacking Race

Introduction Set within the great state of South Dakota you begin your adventure in Beulah, WY and end in Sioux City, Iowa. The course blends in every surface that exists in South Dakota, other than pavement which is almost nonexistence on the course. The article is for what the mid and back of the pack rider will experience - including all you Clydesdales!!! This race is the perfect training grounds for Tour Divide based on rider’s who have accomplished both. I cannot share the GPX for the race as it crosses private land, riders only have permission during the race. Please respect this as riders have followed the route outside of the race which has resulted in losing the land permissions. My steed of choice was a Salsa Fargo Ti custom build. See at the end for a spec list if interested. Ride Days Overview Day 1 - Beulah, WY - Lead, SD (~57 miles) Day 2 - Lead, SD - Wall Drug (Mile ~217) Day 3- Wall Drug - Some Farm (Mile ~300) Day 4 - Some Farm - Blunt (Mile ~402) Day 5
