The Day Across Minnesota (The DAMN)

Here’s what you’re getting yourself into:

Racers and their support crews will check-in at the historic Buffalo Ridge Resort on Friday, August 1st between the hours of 5pm and 11pm. After that, our racers will line up on Gary, South Dakota’s main drag for a mass midnight start signaled by a fireworks display. 

Each racer will then have the next 24 hours to navigate our 240 mile gravel course by paper cue sheet or GPX file. Your choice. Racers are permitted to bring their own support crews. However, DAMn support can ONLY be received from your support crew at up to 3 designated checkpoints. This is on your honor. There will be unofficial support opportunities along the route, critical for racers who attempt to complete The DAMn.

To officially finish and earn the title of ‘DAMn Champion’, a 240 mile racer must reach our Hager City, Wisconsin finish line within 24 hours. Do you have what it takes? 

Registration opens on Thursday, January 2nd 2025 at 7pm Central Time. Visit www.the-damn.com for more information.
