Tri 1 Events has announced the second year of its annual Kettle Mettle Dirty Fundo on Oct.3, 2015.
As of April 1 the registration fee will increase from $100 to $110 for individuals and from $95 to $105 per person for teams of two or four.
A fun and challenging ride, the Kettle Mettle Dirty Fundo is proving to be a rewarding experience to all who participate.
Surrounded by miles of orchards and wineries and offering stunning views of the surrounding area from high atop the old railway trestles, organizers said you won’t find a ride quite like this anywhere else.
Beginning in Penticton, the Kettle Mettle Dirty Fundo takes riders through the trails once ridden by railway cars, carrying freight as well as passengers to their new beginning.
Cyclists will ride over the Myra Canyon trestles with its breathtaking views to reach their final destination in Kelowna.
The race will begin at 8 a.m. with a maximum finish time of 4:30 p.m. Following the race there will be an after party event in Kelowna where racers can relax and celebrate.
Race categories include cyclecross, mountain bike and classic (bicycle at least 20 years or older). Racers receive a custom designed t-shirt, a pair of souvenir cycling socks, a beer ticket and more.
