This is an adventure ride, not a competition. There are no prizes or awards. There will be towns along the way with access to water and food but there will not be SAG vehicles or aid stations. Please consider this a a self supported ride. Do not enter if you are not comfortable riding without support.
Ride the NETT is a unique adventure ride utilizing the Northeast Texas Trail as well as a network of dirt and country roads for the longer routes. The NETT is a converted railway line which is still very rugged along much of it's path. Mileage and routes may change at promoters discretion based on weather, trail and road conditions or as warranted for safety purposes.
Either mountain bikes or CX bikes would be appropriate but we do not recommend road bikes at all. We offer numerous route lengths for most skill levels. Registration is online only @ https://www.bikereg.com/net/ride-the-nett which closes 8pm 11/1.
Out of town visitors are welcome to bed down in the Methodist Church gymnasium Friday evening with Saturday breakfast for a small donation. Please let us know if you plan to utilize this option.
A portion of each entry will be devoted to development of the NETT. Projects TBD. First 100 entries (by 10-15) will also receive a commemorative T-shirt.
