About This Event

The Dakota Five-O, lollie-pop loop, begins in Spearfish City Park with a neutral roll out, and leaves town to the west up to Tinton Road. The racing begins on the three miles of gravel road climbing and will give the fast guys a chance to vie for position, before funneling onto the twisty, smooth, Tinton Trail single-track. For the next few miles passing is tight, and it could get a little congested, but keep your cool and don’t get too antsy, as there is plenty of riding ahead! Starting at the "loop" at mile 7 we decided to ride the course in opposite directions from year to year, to keep things fresh! Cash Prizes for all Age classes: $6,000 Cash Purse 15 or less riders in class= Cash 3 deep Over 15 riders in class= Cash 5 deep If less than 3 riders in a class, prize will be awarded All classes 1st= $100 2nd= $80 3rd= $70 4th= $60 5th= $50 Cash Prizes for Overall Category winners: $3,000 Cash Purse Top 5 overall, mens, womens, nonbinary: Must have a minimum of 50 participants in the Category 1st= $400 + Custom Trophy, Winner's Prize from Sram/Quarq 2nd=$350 + Custom Trophy 3rd=$300 + Custom Trophy 4th= $250 + Custom Trophy 5th=$200 + Custom Trophy
