Doom 2027
AR, United States 422mi (679km)
Doom returns to the Boston Mountains, mixing old favorites with new backcountry miles, rugged forest roads, and the kind of rowdy terrain that has defined the event from the start.
Doom returns for its sixth edition with a new home base in Fayetteville and two routes deep into the Boston Mountains of Arkansas. Bringing together Doom classics from its early editions with new stretches of Ozark backcountry, both routes deliver the rowdy mountain bike-style gravel the event is known for, with rough forest roads, steep grades, hike-a-bikes, and long descents that reward the effort of getting there.
Riders can choose between two self-supported distances:
Doom: 422 miles | 43,000+ feet of climbing | ~30 miles of singletrack | 70% unpaved
Buried in Boston: 262 miles | 24,000+ feet of climbing | ~25 miles of singletrack | 70% unpaved
The shorter Buried in Boston route shares many miles with Doom before returning north through Oark, home to the event’s first two editions.
Mount Sequoyah will serve as event headquarters, with rider check-in on Friday, March 19, and the Grand Depart on Saturday, March 20.
Grand Depart Times:
Doom — 5:00 AM
Buried in Boston — 6:00 AM
