Thanks for coming out, we raised enough for 26 bikes, there were 46 riders and 23 finishers, ranging from 14 years old to...ahh slightly older than that
Formerly known as the Ironbutt 100, One Lap of Memphis will tie all the mountain bike trails together that the Memphis area has to offer. Please remember, it's not a competition, it's merely an exhibition of stupidity

The Route:
This will be the backasswards year for the One Lap of Memphis, After starting at 7:00 sharp we will head to Lakeland’s Harvester Park. After and easy ride at Lakeland it’s time for the longest section of road out to Herb Parson’s Lake. Eight miles later we are on the way to the greenways of Collierville, a little secret single track, double track and road section later we hit the future green line off of Macon Rd all the way to the Wolf River where we drop into the Blue Trail on the Wolf River Trail. Now that everyone is on familiar trails it’s time for the dreaded Tour de Wolf lap and some sub sandwiches After lunch it’s back to the WRT on the blue to Germantown road, turn at the last levee and hit the Yellow trail all the way back to Summer. After emerging tanned and rested from the relaxing Wolf River beach ride it’s only five miles to the oasis known as Stanky Creek. Eleven fun filled miles later with over 98 miles down, it’s an easy eight mile ride back to frappuccino, spaghetti and all the beer you care to drink
