I would like to participate in the MS150 event next year. What other equipment would I need? I am looking for a bike in the $100 to $300 range to start off. Where could I find a good training schedule and cycling trails online?

The best thing to do is go to a bike shop. They will have the best advice for local trails and road rides. They will also get you set up with everything you need, even give you advice for training for events.

a good bike like a trek road bike can cost around 2000 dollars so 200 300 dollars is getting something pretty cheap
if you want speed precision and lightweight design go for a specialized bike or a trek most cost just over 1000 dollars for average ones
one good place to bike is in escalante utah at graind staircase escalante national monument if you want to train with some off road stuff
another good trail is by east bear lake up by grand marais in minnesota it is around 120 miles long good for road training especially for staged events

Probably a Haro or Freeagent bike.

In that price range, you will be looking for a used bike.

For around $300 you could get a used entry-level road bike that is a few years old. Some possibilities might be a Giant OCR series or a Trek 1000.
Get some cycling shorts, a hydration pack or water bottle and cage, cycling shoes and clipless pedals, helmet, and plenty of sunscreen as well.
