Start in Denver then Ride With Us to Washington, D.C.
[ 15 days / 14 nights – August 9- 23, 2020 ]
Coast to Coast, baby! This is the ultimate adventure on the SCMR2020 event. Choose from one of three West Coast start locations (Los Angeles, San Francisco or Portland, OR) and ride all the way across our great nation visiting historic sites, riding cool roads, and seeing the best of what America has to offer along that specific route. We’ll be riding secondary roads and avoiding highways as much as possible. Most days will be ~250 miles and there will be approximately one rest day per week. It’s the perfect balance of seeing it all, getting there and having the epic adventure of a lifetime…
We leave the Golden State and head through nearby Nevada across the Loneliest Highway in America, Historic Route 50. From Nevada we head to the crown jewels of our National Parks System, Zion and Bryce National Parks. From the red rocks of Utah we head straight to the Rocky Mountains and stop in the Colorado Springs/Denver area where more lady riders join us. After an exhilarating ride up Pike’s Peak we continue through America’s Heartland on our way to Knoxville, TN, where all three cross-country routes converge and we meet up with our sister riders coming in off their own epic journeys. This is where the real party starts. From Knoxville, we all ride together to Washington, D.C. — in small pods, not in a giant group! — for our three-day Grand Finale Extravaganza celebration.
Highlights:
- Rocky Mountains
- Pike’s Peak
- Denver Area Start City Party
- Knoxville, TN All-Routes-Converge Experience
- Washington, D.C. Three-Day Grand Finale Extravaganza

Self-Guided Registration
Self-Guided Registration: The DIY Pay-As-You-Go Option
If you register as a self-guided rider, then you are completely connected to us yet totally independent…you’ll pay an event fee to participate, then pick and choose what you want to participate in. This way you only pay for what you’re interested in – not the whole shebang.
After registration we’ll send you a form on which you can let us know what nights you’ll be with us and your billing details, and we’ll send your booking details directly to our hotels (thereby saving you having to call all 21-24 hotels). They’ll charge you directly for any deposits and fees and you’re responsible for any changes to your reservations. (Note that because we are in some big cities with lots of events going on the same time as ours you may have to pay a deposit well in advance – our contract with each hotel is different.) We’ve tried our best to negotiate breakfasts to be included in your discounted room rates, but there will be some hotels where we did not (like those $38 breakfast buffets at big city hotels) so you can make that choice on your own.
Once you’re registered you’ll be able to find your own roommate (if you want one to help reduce costs) in our closed Facebook Group for SCMR2020 riders.
Self-Guided Registration – What’s Included:
- Event Fee
- Start City Party
- Hotel Room Reservations (so you don’t have to call all 21-24 hotels)
- Route Information

- Any “free” lunches at dealerships or partner venues along the way
