Riders are set to pedal from Edgemont to Deadwood for the 11th annual Mickelson Trail Trek, the three-day supported ride over the gravel recreational path through the Black Hills. Check-in is from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. today at the Custer Area Chamber of Commerce. The trek runs Friday through Sunday, Sept. 19-21.

According to officials, last year's ride attracted a record 545 bicyclists, 21 returning for their 10th trek.

The $175 fee includes a trail pass, shuttle service, refreshments, some meals during each day's ride and a commemorative souvenir if supplies last. Riders are responsible for accommodations and mechanical support. The ride is open to all bicyclists 14 years of age or older.
