The Big Lonely Pre-Order

The Big Lonely is a 350 mile competitive adventure by bike, routing riders over 25,000’ of cumulative elevation gain throughout the Central Oregon high desert terrain. Riders make their way over the shoulder of Broken Top in the Cascade mountain range, through the twisting canyons of Lake Billy Chinook, up into the Ochoco Mountains, along the Crooked River Scenic Bikeway and finally up & over the Newberry Caldera to the desert east of Bend, Oregon.

Northwest Competitive Adventure has partnered with Cognative MTB to provide high quality mountain bike jerseys and tees to commemorate your experience with the event, whether you’re a 2-day finisher, a 7-day finisher, a dotwatcher, or a volunteer at the pre-race party. Your purchase of The Big Lonely merchandise directly supports the media team who spend many days and nights out on course capturing photos and videos of riders as they complete the route. 

Media is a typically thankless job, and it’s time we say thank you to them for their hard work!
