"Get ready for an epic ride! With over 160 miles of singletrack trails
capitol forest is truly a mountain biker's paradise. The trails are well
maintained, and most of the course is rolling, though there are some
fireroad climbs and fast downhills. 80-90% of the course will be
singletrack, with very little overlap due to the incredible amount of
superb trails out there. There will be plenty of aid stations along the
course and these will be fully stocked with fresh fruit, sandwiches,
clif product (gels, bloks, bars), electrolytes (nuun, clif electrolyte),
FRS, cookies, etc. The course will be well marked and accurately
measured. Categories Male Open, Men 40-49, Men 50+, Female Open, Female
