The Lander Cycling Club is hosting the 11th Annual Fremont Area Road Tour (F.A.R.T) from Aug 1-31, 2020. Due to the current COVID-19 novel coronavirus pandemic, this year the event will be hosted online, rather than in Lander, Wyoming, and will give participants a chance to compete in a month-long virtual challenge.

Registered riders will be able to participate from any location just by riding their bikes along their favorite routes. Participants will need to track their activities using Strava or another activity tracker for verification. They will then log their miles on the event’s Rider Portal. Prizes will be awarded to the top 3 male and female overall distance, overall elevation gain, longest recorded ride, and best event photos. Event T-shirt color will be based on the total miles achieved by the end of the event and riders will no doubt be vying for the coveted 400+ mile “yellow jersey”. Riders will have the entire month of August to accumulate miles and can record road, gravel, mountain, or activities from a smart trainer. Competition and raffle winners will be announced on Sept 5th. Registered riders will receive their event SWAG (via mail or local pick up) at the completion of the event. Registration opens June 15.
