Each category will have male/female division. First Time Racer, Novice (Cat 3), Sport (Cat 2), and Expert (Cat 1). There will be an open division for Ebikes as well, Class 1 only. Race 1 May 9th, will be a Crit style race on dirt mixing fast open double track around the lake with flowy single track. It will be roughly a 3 mile loop. First Time Racer - 2 Laps, Novice -3 Laps, EBike and Sport - 4 Laps, Expert - 5 Laps. Race 2 June 13th, will be on one of the green loops to add a little bit of technical feel to the race while still being smooth enough trail and short enough distance that the racers can focus on the basics while still pushing their limits. We may have a unique twist to be announced on
