This is the recap video of the 2009 AdventureCORPS Furnace Creek 508 Bicycle Race, originally shown at the post-race breakfast in Twenty Nine Palms. It features highlights of the 2009 race, accompanied by music. NOTE: All copyrights go to the original artists. It was produced by Rachel Schmitt, Lauren McMahon, and Angel Rincon in association with AdventureCORPS.

Furnace Creek 508™, "The toughest 48 hours in sport," has been an AdventureCORPS event held annually in October in Death Valley and the Mojave Desert since 1990, but it dates back to 1983 under the directorship of John Marino, founder of the Great American Bicycle Race and the Race Across America (RAAM). This 508 mile bicycle race - "Where the West is Won!" - is revered the world over for its epic mountain vistas, stark desert scenery, desolate roads, and its reputation as one of the toughest but most gratifying endurance challenges available, bar none. Solo, tandem, and relay divisions are offered in this exciting and unusual bicycle race. 48 hour time limit. 35,000 feet of elevation gain. Visit the 508's dedicated website at http://www.the508.com
