Spanning three Tuesdays in August—8/4, 8/11, and 8/18—the event provides riders with the chance to compete twice each night within their chosen category. Each race is designed to be an intense yet enjoyable workout, lasting approximately 20 minutes on a challenging course that includes both dirt tractor paths and wooded single track. The scenic trails offer diverse terrain, ensuring every ride is unique and engaging. Between races, participants can explore additional trails at the venue, adding variety to their training sessions. To ensure safety and compliance with event rules, all racers must sign an online race waiver. Registration options include signing up for the entire series at a discounted rate or registering individually each night. Each competitor will receive a numbered plate valid for all three nights; replacements are available if lost. The scoring system is designed to reward consistent performance: - Nightly: Top 3 podiums based on lowest average result. - Series: Minimum top 3 podiums overall, considering combined results and number of races completed. Awards ceremonies will follow the conclusion of each night's second race. The event aims to maintain a fun atmosphere for all participants—this is after all, a training series meant to keep things light-hearted yet competitive. The day unfolds with a structured schedule: - 5:00 - 5:30 Course Preview and Warm-Up - 5:30 - 6:20 Races A & B - 6:30 - 7:20 Races C, A, B (repeated categories for varied training) Race promoters reserve the right to adjust schedules based on participation numbers or weather conditions.
