Hawduro 2024

Clinch Valley Trail Alliance is stoked to announce that we will be hosting our second annual enduro style party/race at Haw Ridge on Sunday, May 5th, 2024!

HAWDURO!

The race will have a novice (Enduro-curious) class and an open (Enduro-licious) class. The Enduro-licious class will feature 6 stages that cover all major areas of Haw Ridge via the parks most challenging trails. The Enduro-curious class will be a shortened 3 stage version focusing on the most popular, intermediate level trails in the park. The enduro-curious class is an awesome way to get introduced to the enduro racing format.

Each stage will have a dedicated, untimed climb route and a timed descent. The timed portions are mainly downhill, but will be of varying length, steepness, and difficulty.

All proceeds from the race will go directly towards trail building and maintenance of Haw Ridge and the other trail systems in Anderson and Roane County.

There will be primitive camping onsite for racers on Saturday, May 4th to get the party started early. And this year the race is Sunday so more folks can join us for the fun and give racers more opportunity to pre-ride on Saturday.
