Late Registration

If you missed online registration don't worry. Just show up early Saturday morning with exact cash or check and we will get you out there. There will be food and beverages for racers during and post race. If you are bringing the family please make sure they have what they need. Anything extra we have can certainly be spread around once racers have finished. We look forward to another great Dirty Dawg!

Mountain Escape

We have a good weekend ahead of us. The weather is suppose to be in the mid 80's in Blacksburg on Saturday. We can hope for low 80's and possible 70's up in the mountains. That would be a nice escape from the warm week we have all endured.

We rode the course one final time before we mark it and it measures out to 5.7 miles with 814 feet of elevation gain/loss.

See you up there!

Final Prep

The course is now clear and ready to race. It never made it out of the 60's yesterday. Hopefully we will be that lucky next weekend. A big thanks to Graham Snyder and Christian Probst for all their help. There is a slight change in the route. We will no longer go up to Bear Cliffs. At the top of the B. C Connector we will turn left and take the Turnpike Trail back to the finish. This will keep the course much more tame (still plenty of rocks for those who love that type of riding) but enough flow for those of you who don't. I will have it marked early on Friday July 22nd if you want to show up early and pre-ride.
Remember, if you plan to camp please bring everything you need. There is no running water. We will provide food and beverages post race. I highly recommend the breakfast buffet at the Mountain Lake Hotel the morning after the race. It is just a short bike/walk from the camping.
We have many great prizes from East Coasters and The Hawley Co.

Hope to see you up there!

Less than two weeks

We are getting close to go time. This week we will be spending several days clearing trail and making sure the course is riding nicely. Graham will be spending most of tomorrow trimming the ferns so you can still see the trail. I will get pics of the course posted this weekend so you know what to expect.
We look forward to seeing you up there!
