Dawn 'til Dusk is a totally grassroots, reasonably priced, swag filled 12-hour mountain bike race on one of the finest fully single-track courses in the southwest. In our 6th year we're planning for 500 participants to join us for a pre-race/packet pickup dinner, 12-hours of single track, bike games, a post race meal and awards ceremony, hoppin' tasty brews, and possibly a Sunday breakfast/recovery ride. Check back frequently as we finalize plans.

Those that registered in 2009 receive $20 off registration. To take advantage of this offer, please follow the registration instructions on the registration page. DO NOT REGISTER ONLINE or you forfeit this offer.

Proceeds from Dawn 'til Dusk support Open Air Search & Rescue (SAR) and the Rebohoth McKinley Christian Health Care Services (RMCHCS) Foundation. Open Air SAR, a non-profit organization in Gallup, has provided medical aid for Dawn 'til Dusk since their inception at no cost. Without them this event would be miserable. They use funds raised from Dawn 'til Dusk for materials to continue supporting events in the region.The RMCHCS Foundation, also a non-profit in Gallup, at one time housed the event and now provides volunteer support and equipment. The mission of the Foundation is to improve the health of the people of the American Southwest. They use funds raised from Dawn 'til Dusk to help combat diabetes in the region, an endemic problem among our Native America populations.
