Ripe for Racing!

Dirty Avocados Adventure Racing has been racing their tails off this year! We've hit it hard at the BAAR Brawl, NorCal AR, Baja Travesia, and Sea Otter. And we’ve represented—grabbing top ten spots at Baja and Sea Otter.

Primal Quest Montana is still at the center of our radar. And we’re gearing up two teams for this one! Our certifications are complete. Our training is coming together nicely. But our patience for the start is fading!!

We continue to support Make-A-Wish along our way to Primal Quest. June 1st’s raffle for a FREE custom bike frame is coming soon. Click here to get yourself and your friends raffle entries now!

Train hard, race harder, and be safe.

What is adventure racing?
Adventure racing is a combination of two or more disciplines, including orienteering and navigation, cross-country running, mountain biking, paddling and climbing and related rope skills. An expedition event can span ten days or more while sprints can be completed in a matter of hours. Typically there is no “dark period” during races, regardless of their length – the choice when (and if) to rest is left to the competitors.
Adventure racing is classically a co-ed team sport. Nonetheless, many races now permit "teams" of 1 to 5 persons, single-sex or co-ed, and sometimes include age-based categories.
