From the Organizer
An all-women tour on the Beartooth Pass. We've thought of everything you need to ride well. We'll even supply the fun, help check over your bike and cheer you on to the summit, 10,947 ft. BYOB(ike) or inquire about a rental if needed. Registration includes Beartooth La Femme Limited Edition Terry Jersey, dinner at pre-ride meeting night before by The Wild Table, pre ride breakfast snack, route food, rider identification, finish line beverage and swag bag.
Schedule: Gather Sunday, August 16, mandatory ride meeting after dinner and some inspirational fun at the Roosevelt Center after dinner. Monday, August 17, ride roll out at 7:00 am. And yes, Monday. Why? Early weekdays are the best day to experience the Beartooth Pass. We've got years of experience in this area not only riding but also hosting other events.
Beartooth La Femme: A 62 mile out and back on the Beartooth Pass to the Summit of 10,947 ft. 31 miles in from our downtown Red Lodge start. Red Lodge is 5,555 ft. in elevation so you not only double your elevation but you'll see why the Beartooth Pass is not easily ridden. We will crown one Beartooth La Femme Queen who reaching the summit first - clock will begin at 7:00 for those seeking the Beartooth La Femme crown. But fear not, there will be be no timing chips and we will restrict outside tour support as the pass has enough challenges without looking like a race. Our vehicles and rest stops will be the support and we will ask anyone with an outside vehicle supporting them to leave the tour if they are adding unnecessary congestion.
