Join Chumba Ultra-racer Katie Strempke on the AZT 800! Starting at Arizona’s border with Mexico the route heads north to the border with Utah. Katie races across deserts, mountains, and a required portage across the Grand Canyon with her bike on her back. The biodiversity of the AZT and the shear number of miles on single rack makes this route a special one. Full written story @ The Town Bicycle.
Andrew's Highland Trail 550
Follow Andrew's experience racing the 2023 Highland Trail 550. Andrew rode his Chumba Sendero Ti across Scotland’s stunning terrain.

Good for a 6th place finish!
