Compass Challenge 2021: North America

Inspired by the continent-crossing rides of early 20th century cyclists, the Rapha Compass Challenge is a ride with a difference. This July, we’re inviting you to plot your own course between four coordinates surrounding cities across the US – all in the space of a week.

Each participant will be awarded a limited edition print from US-based illustrator Casey Robertson, while anyone brave enough to complete the challenge in one go will be entered into a draw to win prizes from Rapha. The best photo tagged with #raphacompasschallenge from the event in each region will win a custom engraved pocket compass, in tribute to the spirit of adventure.

Register to complete the challenge in your local city below. Once you’ve registered, you’ll receive an email containing your local coordinates as well as a completion form. Plot your routes, record your ride on Strava or RidewithGPS, and enjoy the adventure and fill in the completion form once you’ve hit all four coordinates.

Submissions close on July 23.
