HYPNOTIC EVENINGS
Become entranced by the night and join our online ride community for the first annual Hypnosis Virtual Night Ride. The second night in the Insomniac Series, Hypnosis Virtual gives cyclists the opportunity to connect world wide as they 'seize the night' virtually together. Another twilight adventure calls you to explore your surrounding landscapes as a creature mesmerized by the night life.
Join a community of bike riders and escape the summer heat as you challenge yourself to train your tired eyes to stay focused on the path ahead-and keep grinding, keep pushing, and keep moving. Choose from two fixed-time options in three categories offered and accumulate as many miles as you can in the given time. Or take the ultra 100 Mile challenge and ride beyond the given time towards the dawn until you reach 100 Miles: The Hypnosis Dawn Breaker 100 Mile (details below).
The Hynosis Virtual Night Ride is part of the Virtual Insomniac Series, inspiring cyclists from around the world to come together and shred the night. Join the community and experience an adventure made possible through online social sharing. Take photos, make videos, explore your cities, and share your stories of motivation, inspiration, and triumph with us and with each other. Be the compelling light for those stumbling in the dark. Join us this June!
SUPPORTING LOCAL PARKS
Short and Sweet Headlines are Best!
The Hypnosis Virtual Night Ride is inspired by the annual Hypnosis Night Rides hosted in the Estrella Mountain Regional Park in Avondale, Arizona. We love our regional parks and want to continue to support them.
To help promote one of our favorite Maricopa Parks, we are offering all participants a glimpse of the Hypnosis race course through our new interactive video venture; an Insomniac Trail Series simulation designed to takes viewers on a virtual tour of the park. These virtual course videos allow participants to race along with our hosts as they feature each distance offered in the Hypnosis Night Race lineup. Watch as you put in miles at home on your trainer or view for inspiration before your own night adventure!
To further our commitment to our local parks, a portion of each entry will be donated directly to the Maricopa Parks & Recreation Department to help offset the loss of revenue experienced by the park due to cancelled events. Become a virtual steward of the trails and help us in our efforts to proudly support our parks.
