I've had no luck finding a link to or information on an event called either Ride Across Wyoming or Ride Around Wyoming. Any help? Thanks.

Hi, The link for Cycle Wyoming is as follows:

www.cyclewyoming.org

The 2006 ride appears to be filled at the present time, and they are only taking applications for volunteers. I would have been interested this year but was too late in looking up the information. I am going to ride in the CANDISC for the 4th year in North Dakota. It is a similar tour without mountains, but the hills in and out of the river bottoms can be severe. You can look this up on the web. CANDISC is held the first full week in August.

Thanks, montana_cyclist, I'll check that out, which I did come across in my search; however, I'm not sure if it's what I was looking for. I saw a jersey with the words "Ride Across Wyoming" or "Ride Around Wyoming" and wondered where to find that ride. I've seen references to a ride with that name in my surfing, but no links, no direct information. So many rides, so little time!

I've heard of the original RAW ride as well; I think it disbanded because I was unable to find anything on it when I went searching a while back as well. CycleAmerica has a couple rides that go through Wyoming, such as their Range Ride or their Bighorns route (bring your climbing legs, good descending skills and a healthy attitude about how much fun headwinds are).

That's a great itinerary for the Range Ride: almost 500 miles in 6 days, then a day off on the last day! Well, perhaps it reflects that Biblical chronology: on the 7th day, he rested.... I'll say!!!!
