Additional Information

Thought a 'normal 600k' was too easy? Thought Ohio is flat? Well, welcome to the crazy world of the 8k600k.

600km. More than 26,000 feet of climbing. Still only 40 hours to do it.
Successful completion is a step towards your Randonneur 10,000 award.

MOSTLY UNSUPPORTED RIDE: don't expect even the semi-customary meet-and-greet at controls.

Note: official elevation calculation is via OpenRunner - current route is 8,164m / 26,784 ft of climbing: openrunner
