Take the Challenge!

Join HI-GC for the ultimate ultra-marathon. BAM is a scenic tour across Missouri for the long-distance cyclist. Rated in Bicycling Magazine as "one of the 10 toughest weekend bicycle rides in the U.S.", you, the rider, will encounter knee-busting knobs, breath-taking valleys, historic towns and scores of enthusiastic well-wishers to cheer you on. Started as a training event between quadrennial Paris-Brest-Paris events in 1980, BAM has evolved into its own unique event challenging riders from 16 to 68. If you are a fit, highly motivated cyclist, we invite you to accept the BAM challenge this Labor Day weekend.
