Mane Event

DATES:

September 19, 2026

LOCATION:

The Koltiska Pumpkin Patch

ADDRESS:

120 Cat Creek Road, Sheridan, WY 82801

The Mane Event has something for everyone, including 78-, 54-, 32-, and 25-mile routes. All courses include beautiful views, flaggers, aid stations with water, restrooms, and first aid.

THE COURSES:

78 Mile

Start Time: 7:30AM
The 78-mile loop takes east of Sheridan through the rolling hills of well-maintained county roads with a bit of highway asphalt to recover and get your average speed up. You hook into the 54-mile route and then back towards Sheridan and the finish line.

  • Paved – 15.9 mi – 20%

  • Gravel – 62.4 mi – 80%

  • Total Ascent – 4,105 feet

  • 5 Aid Stations

54 Mile

Start Time: 8:30AM
This 54-mile loop is not an easy stroll with a few shorter climbs and a long draw of a climb that will challenge you right in the middle of the route. The long downhill in the last ~15 miles will surely have you smiling as you roll into the finish.

  • Paved – 8 mi – 15%

  • Gravel – 46 mi – 85%

  • Total Ascent – 3,188 feet

  • 3 Aid Stations

32 MILE

Start Time: 9:00AM
A small mileage jump from our smallest route but it runs over our ‘triple crown’ climb just like the 54 and 72 mile routes. A truly challenging and beatiful route.

  • Paved – 8 mi – 27%
  • Gravel – 24 mi – 73%
  • Total Ascent – 2,077 feet
  • Aid Stations along the route

25 Mile

Start Time: 9:30AM
A challenging but beautiful ‘out and back’, this route will take you along Wyoming ranch land with a climb on the way out and a nice downhill back to the finish.

  • Paved – 5.9 mi – 23%

  • Unpaved – 19.6 mi – 77%

  • Total Ascent – 953 feet

  • Aid Station at the half-way point (12.5 mile marker)
