Course Information
|
Pre-race staging will be at Lowden Park on Washington Street, centrally located in Weaverville. There is plenty of parking around the park. Racers will leave Lowden Park and parade through Historic Downtown to the race start, a distance of 1.3 miles. Families may ride with their racer in the parade only at their own risk. Parking at the start is limited, but there is parking a short distance away at Trinity High School, Alps View High School or at Trinity County Office of Education.
All courses are on public trails, which will remain open to trail users during the race. Please keep alert for walkers. There will be aid stations on the courses to offer drinks and encouragement. First Aid stations will also be set up on the courses. Be aware - on every course expect sections of tight single track that will make passing problematic. Be courteous to your fellow racers! Course marshals will be on the race course to help with directions and emergencies. On the NEW race routes, you will ride through conifer forests and oak woodlands, on historic mining ditches and challenging single track trails. We made every effort to avoid forest roads. The course will be well signed but you must pay attention as all three race courses overlap. The Weaver Basin Trail System was the location of the very successful World Endurance Mountain Bike Organization (WEMBO) 24 Hour Solo World Championships in 2015. So expect an exciting ride!
