Yukon 24 Hours of Light just might be the only 24-hour race not requiring a bike light; it goes so far as to forbid any form of illuminati­on on your rig. In Canada’s land of the midnight sun, you won’t need one. But you’ll have to pack for just about any weather. Organizers warn that conditions can go from a hot summer’s day to snow, and back again. The course will be 12.5 km, will have 227 m of elevation and will couple fast and flowy singletrac­k sections with areas of doubletrac­k, perfect for passing.
