The Morganzo 55: Double Nickels on the Grime route can be ridden nearly all year ’round with the exception being times of heavy snow or immediately after a rain storm. During these times some sections become “impassable when wet“.
Annually, toward the end of Summer there is a gathering of a group of riders who celebrate the Morganzo 55: Double Nickels on the Grime as a group, riding the route together. The date is announced on this web site and via the email newsletter some months in advance. The official start point for the Double Nickels on the Grime race is the corner of Dry Creek Road and Theisen Roads just north of Belgrade, MT.
The gathering is unofficial, has no cost, no registration, but also comes along with no support. Freewill donations are appreciated but not required and help cover the costs of this web site, cold drinks, and the administrative efforts of coordination. The Morganzo is not a race. There are no winners, nor losers, just first (and last) pick from the cooler of cold ones.
