2020 LaGrange Classic 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 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 four 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! Register online at Bikereg.comCheck out our new pricing schedule for this year including discounts for early registration!
The fee entitles you to participate in the race and the opportunity to receive a swag bag of goodies while supplies last. No refunds. On-site registration will be available on Friday, June 5th, from 4 pm until 7 pm only.
On-site late registration is available on race day from 7:00 am until 8:30am for an additional $10. No registration after 8:30am! Please be there on time or we start without you! Trinity Bike Park: Pump Track Time Trials
The Trinity Bike Park Pump Track will be the venue for the Pump Track Time Trials, on Saturday afternoon following the LaGrange Classic Race Awards Ceremony. These will be timed races for anyone who wants to participate, including a scooter category. Riders, one at a time, will race through the pump track twice. Medals will be presented to the fastest riders of each age group. Registration will be on Saturday, the day of the race, at the TTA Information Booth in the park. There is no registration fee but participants or guardians must sign an acknowledgement of risk form before riders will be allowed on the track. Helmets are required, protective clothing recommended. Come have fun!
