On a sunny August day in 2025 Ergon Factory Rider Kurt Refsnider's set off from the Canadian border just outside of Oroville, Washington headed for Cabo San Lucas, Baja California, Mexico - some 4,664 miles of unknown dirt trails ahead.

Over the next 135 days, he pedaled some of the most the rugged terrain in North America, linking the Cascade volcanoes, the Sierra Nevada, and the spine of Baja California. Staying comfortable while pedaling was paramount and Ergon was with Kurt the entire way. For more about Kurt's ride and the Orogenesis trail visit: orogenesiscollective.org
