4 Days to Go!

The tallest spectators at the KARI Challenge don't cheer.

They simply stand, quietly watching as riders navigate the forest route that twists and turns beneath their branches.

They've seen nervous starts become confident finishes.
They've seen teammates encourage one another through the toughest climbs.
They've seen riders cross the finish line with smiles that say it all.

Four days from now, the forest will no longer be silent. The quiet of the forest will be broken only by the rhythm of spinning wheels, steady breathing, and the determination to keep moving forward.
