The 2011 Iceman Cometh Challenge is a point to point mountain bike race held traditionally on the first Saturday of November. The race starts in downtown Kalkaska, Michigan and finishes twenty eight miles later at Timber Ridge Resort in Traverse City, Michigan. The course consists primarily of dirt roads, two-tracks (the majority of the course), abandoned railroad beds, and the world famous Vasa Nordic ski trail. It crosses only one paved road (Williamsburg Rd at mile 17) as it winds through the breathtaking (literally) terrain of the Pere Marquette State Forest in Northern Lower Michigan. In 2009, Iceman attracted 4,586 competitive cyclists from 38 states including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland, Minnesota, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming, as well as Ontario, Canada. Their ability levels varied from first time racers to seasoned professionals. Ages ranged from 2 years to 75 years of age.
