Cowboy Crusher
THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED
Central Wyoming's Grassroots Gravel Event and One Heck of a Shindig!
We like it gritty, we like it dirty, and we like it Cowboy Tough!
The Cowboy Crusher is held in the beautiful town of Glenrock Wyoming. Nestled at the base of the Rocky Mountains and the confluence of Deer Creek and North Platte River, Glenrock served as a mail and stage stop along the Oregon Trail and a vital point for emigrants during the westward expansion. Pony Express riders raced through the area at record speeds. It took grit, determination and fortitude to live in Glenrock country.....It took Cowboy Tough!

How to get there
V47P+62V Glenrock, WY
Travel Info Glenrock is a wonderful small Wyoming town with a down-home vibe and friendly smiling people. Settled at the confluence of the North Platte River and Deer Creek, Glenrock has strong ties to the rich history of the area as it was a vital stop along the Oregon Trail for those emigrating westward in the 1800's. There are numerous opportunities available to immerse yourself in Glenrock's history through visiting the Deer Creek Museum, the Paleon Museum, Rock in The Glen and locating the Deer Creek Station monument in town. Outdoor activities include hiking and mountain biking at the Duncan Ranch Trail Head south of town, and golfing at the Glenrock Golf Club. There is also an indoor recreation center and the kids will love playing and exploring at the new town square. If you're there in the winter be sure to check out the ice rink. Like many small towns in Wyoming lodging and restaurant options are limited. A short 20 minute drive east to the larger town of Douglas and west to the city of Casper will provide more lodging and restaurant options. Wherever you stay you're sure to enjoy the hospitality that Central Wyoming has to offer.
Event day logistics
RACE DAY PROCEDURES and RULES There will be a lead-out vehicle at the start for each of the courses. Once that pulls away, the race is on. Keep your eyes open for the Cowboy Crusher signs as they clearly mark the courses throughout. It is the rider’s responsibility to know their way on the course. It is essential to download the appropriate course for your distance to your GPS device in advance. You’ll spend a large part of the day outside of cell coverage. The GPX files are also available to load to your devices in the course info further down in this guide or directly on the website https://www.cowboycrusher.com Outside support is NOT allowed, except at the designated aid stations/checkpoints. The official aid stations/checkpoints along the routes will serve as a neutral area where event participants may meet their support crew to restock supplies and repair equipment. The official aid stations/checkpoints will be the only locations along any of the courses where participants may receive assistance from their support crew. Receiving assistance (other than immediate emergency medical needs) from a support crew, or any other non-participant, at any point other than the official aid stations/checkpoints will result in immediate disqualification from the event. There are no exceptions to this rule. Participants may help other participants with navigation, mechanical, or any other requested assistance. Support Crews and/or spectators are NOT allowed on course. If you are going to abandon the race you must make it to an official aid station/checkpoint, and then call for your support crew to come get you or take a ride back to Glenrock with a SAG wagon when it is available. A Course Marshall or SAG wagon can take you to the next aid station/checkpoint if they are available. Providing support to a rider while on course is not in the spirit of self-sufficiency of grass roots gravel racing. It is also unfair to other participants,
