RACE DIFFICULTY

Beginner through Advanced Racers.

This course has a NET LOSS in elevation of over 1,000' across the course making it accessible for all-levels of racers. This means that you will descend more than climb in the race. With this said, there will be some climbing on the course. Mandatory points are more than achievable for newer racers to complete the course in the allotted time. This with kids should expect to hike on some rocky trails with small scrambling. Mountain biking is only on beginner and intermediate trails with mandatory checkpoints only located on green trails. Biking will be on gravel roads, single track trails, and paved roads. Paddling will be on a Class I and below river.

Advanced Racers will be equally challenged with elevation and difficulty while rewarded with amazing single track and strategic route choices/options.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course features quality mountain biking trails maintained by the Shenandoah Valley Bike Coalition. These are fast, flowy, & fun! You will have many scenic & beautiful views across the entire course. The course also features excellent wooded trekking sections. Racers will have many route choices to allow numerous decisions and strategy on this fun course! Racers will have a bike-drop located 7 minutes from the race start location the morning of the race. Racers can stage small bags here with resupply which will be transported back to the finish line. The race will feature bike transportation by REV3 Endurance across the course as well as other logistical support.
