ENDURO #2 – FLAGSTAFF

October 26, 2025

Presented by Absolute Bikes

2025 Series Sponsors Team Charity Case and Pivot Cycles

Location:
1-mile east of Sunset Trailhead (map)
Flagstaff, AZ

Race Format:
Enduro racing is made up of multiple timed descents. Riders follow a specific route to get to the start of each stage. A rider’s combined time from all the stages will determine their overall placing. Lowest time wins!

Knee pads, elbow pads, and a full face helmet are strongly recommended along with a 120+ mm trail bike and a dropper seat post.

Camping/Parking:
The venue (start / finish) plus camping and day of parking will be located at a reclaimed wood chipped logging site just east of Sunset TH (location pin). It’s not super flat, but it will cut down on a LOT of pedaling compared to starting at Fort Valley. Best access is off of Elden Springs Rd. from 89 on the east side of town.

It’s about a 5-mile drive approx. 15-mins on a gravel road (easily driven in a 2wd sedan). If you can stay in town and drive up day of, that would be best. If you really want to camp, just know there are only a handful of really flat areas (picture).

No open fires. Propane okay.
