3RD ANNUAL GRAND ENDURO
a classic Grand Valley Mountain Bike Race
8:00am-9:00pm, 2490 Monument Rd, Grand Junction, CO 81507
The Grand Enduro is a classic Grand Valley mountain bike race hosted on one of the few "shuttle-able" local trails in and around Grand

Junction's Lunch Loops Trail System. MAD Racing Colorado secured the permits to take you down this legendary route for the 3rd year in a row. The Grand Enduro course will challenge you on three demanding stages. For those unfamiliar, the nature of these trails is very technical and require expert handling skills as well as solid fitness. You'll start on an otherworldly, humongous slab of rock and be hitting speeds in excess of 30mph in a matter of seconds. Riders who aren't racing generally take their time on this section to carve the lunar-like landscape, but the clock will be running on you! You need to get off that rock and onto the singletrack as soon as possible! We'll have it heavily taped, but pay particular attention during practice for landmarks that will help you navigate the correct route - a missed turn or off-course excursion could cost you loads of time, at best, and at worst, send you plummeting off a cliff!

Association. ALS Association - Rocky Mountain Chapter ------------------------------------------- MISSION To discover treatments and a cure for ALS, and to serve, advocate for, and empower people affected by ALS to live their lives to the fullest. ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. A-myo-trophic comes from the Greek language. "A" means no. "Myo" refers to muscle, and "Trophic" means nourishment – "No muscle nourishment." When a muscle has no nourishment, it "atrophies" or wastes away. "Lateral" identifies the areas in a person's spinal cord where portions of the nerve cells that signal and control the muscles are located. As this area degenerates, it leads to scarring or hardening ("sclerosis") in the region. To learn more, please visit: http://www.alsaco.org
