The 2025 Edition of the Cross Florida Kings Road will begin on October 25th at 6:51 am, Civil Twilight. This year we have two routes available, a 210 +- route and the new Kings Road XL route, 333 miles. The ride will roll out from the Jena Boat Ramp and End on the Atlantic coast, down by the beach, to the right of the Flagler Beach Pier.
The group start will be draft-legal and will challenge riders to complete the course as quickly as possible, although riders are free to complete the challenge without the constraints of cut-offs or time limits.
This is a self-supported ride; there are no sag wagons, and no support vehicles are allowed, except being able to draft riders must maintain this self-supported status throughout the event.
Your registration of 80$ includes the route information, a trail guide, a resource waypoint file, one souvenir, and access to both routes. Routes will be released August 15th, and once the information is sent, no refunds or transfers will be available. Tracking will be provided by Trackleaders, and it is at that time that riders will choose which route they want to ride. There are only two categories available, solo and team. It is at the time of Trackleaders registration that you would choose the team option if that's how you decided to tackle the route.
There will be a shuttle available, spots are limited to the first 30 folks who register for this option. The shuttle will pick up riders in Flagler Beach at noon on October 24th and transport riders to Steinhatchee. The designated parking spot for shuttle riders is approximately 1 mile from the finish line. The price of the shuttle is 130$, add that ticket option to your cart to secure your spot. Shuttle spots are refundable as long as it's canceled 3 weeks before the event start date.
Since there is no cut-off time, riders can choose to ride the route as fast as they want or tour it at their leisure. The goal is to get from one coast to the other, following the route to 99% adherence.
Please share with your friends and join this unique Coast to Coast ride!
Take Care,
