2012 AMA Challenge
100% of the registration fees go directly to the American Diabetes Association helping fulfill our mission, to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. This ride is organized by a Type 1 Diabetic who rides along with the riders to show support.
Come & cycle on a satellite ride for the Tour de Cure. Full Challenge (50 miles) riders will ride up the Ashton hill bound for Mesa Falls and loop back to the city of Ashton. Half Challenge riders (30 miles) begin at the Mesa Falls turnoff in Island Park. Ultimate Challenge (100 miles) Kid Rides are also offered. Enjoy spectacular autumn foliage up close and personal on Half, Full, and Ultimate rides. Donations are greatly appreciated for those who want to help, but not ride.
Ultimate Challenge (100 Miles) – Ultimate Challenge 100 Miles – Ride the whole ride twice (two laps), up the daunting Ashton hill, over the rolling hills to the Mesa Falls scenic drive past the Upper and Lower Falls, down through Bear Gulch, then ride over more rolling hills (a couple 1/2 mile long uphill’s), then enjoy the gradual descent into Ashton.

Kid Challenge (Around the Park) – Kids wants to ride too, so we created a casual ride around the park catered just for their age and ability. Each kid can big wheel, ride a bike or scooter, walk, or even pull their wagon and feel the joy of crossing the same finish line as the “big people”, so bring the whole family for this event. Every registered kid rider will receive an AMA Challenge water bottle.
