No questions asked. No judgment. Just come hungry.

This isn’t just about food… it’s about community, dignity, and showing up for one another the way Jesus taught us.

If you need a meal — come.
If you want to help — come.
If you just need to be around good people — come.

Hell of the North Texas
They have Cobblestones. We have the NETT.

Inspired by the most legendary one-day race in the world—Paris-Roubaix (aka “The Hell of the North”)—we bring you a Texas-sized tribute rooted in our very own Paris.

Staging from Paris, Texas, this event utilizes significant segments of the Northeast Texas Trail (NETT) between Clarksville and Roxton, combined with the rugged county roads that crisscross the region. Just like its French counterpart, this course is designed to test your mettle, your equipment, and your resolve. It serves up a mix of pavement, gravel, and rail-trail “sectors” that will rattle your bones and fill your heart.

Choose your fate carefully. We offer a distance for every level of sinner and saint.
