Have Fun Raising Funds for the Arizona Cancer Center
Join the Arizona Cancer Center and Epic Rides in raising funds for lung cancer research.
The ride-a-thon fundraiser is fun, easy and best of all you can do it while riding at
the Kona Bikes 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo..
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in America today and will account for approximately
15% of all cancer diagnoses in 2010. It is the second most diagnosed cancer in men and women nationally.
As mountain bikers, we realize how important it is to have healthy lungs. With a massive crowd of people enjoying a fun-filled mountain bike weekend at Willow Springs Ranch, there's no reason we shouldn't benefit a group of people unable to ride due to health issues.
Epic Rides is proud to partner with the Arizona Cancer Center. We look forward to supporting lung cancer research and hopefully, one day soon we can all be proud in knowing we contributed to finding a cure.

What's in a Team Name?
Hands down, one of the most entertaining components of the Kona Bikes 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo is the
highly creative, often inappropriate, always funny team names.
Following are a few of this year's greats...
| One bourbon, one scotch, one gear | Girls gone wild in the Old Pueblo | |
| 3 farts and a shart | Life behind bars |
During event weekend, don't forget to check out Epic Rides' top ten team names in the 24 Hour Times event newspaper.

New Fee Schedule for RV's at Old Pueblo
Let's be honest folks, some of the RV's people have been bringing to 24 Hour Town are downright huge. The term "land yacht" is an understatement.
Getting to the point; in recent years, the number and size of the recreational vehicles attendees are bringing to 24 Hour Town has grown, and due to the rugged terrain & tight corners, these mighty comfy land yachts are often times the root of several issues varying from bottlenecking traffic to limiting per capita camp space.
Due to these concerns, and with intent to assure all people in 24 Hour Town get a fair shake come event weekend, Epic Rides is initiating a fee schedule correlated to the amount of real estate occupied. Camp space is a limited commodity; we are doing this solely to make sure people only utilize the amount of space totally necessary.
These fees apply to any trailer, pop-up, 5th wheel, RV, toy hauler or otherwise. If a vehicle is required to tow a trailer, it is included in the overall length.
30' or less - $20
31' or greater - $21 + 72 canned good items
We understand this may be hard news to swallow for a few teams out there however we respectfully request you sit back, relax and consider your options prior to concluding what is truly necessary during your stay in 24 Hour Town.
Of course, if you are still inclined to bring the land yacht, the Tri Community Food Bank thanks you for it.
