Rule of Three

Chasin Payson is the shakeout ride before Rule of Three week — your chance to line up and get ready for the main event.

Rule of Three: tarmac, gravel, and singletrack. Community-driven, affordable entry, no sponsor cash, a hard course, and a rockin’ finish-line party.

If you're coming for Rule of Three, this is your official shakeout.
