For up-to-date race information, be sure to check out postings in the Promoters Corner of the EFTA Forum here .
Test your skills and stamina at the second annual edition of this premier mountain bike race, sanctioned by Eastern Fat Tire Association. The 100 kilometer course will wind through the beautiful and varied terrain of Southern New Hampshire.
The single loop, 100 kilometer course will give participants a good mix of mountain bike terrain. The first miles are open and fast, allowing lung and leg warm-up, and a stretching out of the field. Ample technicals and climbing follow in later miles. The course is planned to be similar, but not identical, to the inaugural edition. Approximately 7,000 feet of climbing. Registration fee includes entry, aid stations with food and fluids, SAG wagon support, post-race meal, complimentary campsite Saturday night at the start/finish venue (no hookups, but within sight of the start/finish line), participant souvenirs, festivities, and awards to top finishers.
Also be sure to check out another great race -- the Vermont 50 Mt Bike or Ultra Run, held on September 28, 2008. A classic event for both cyclists and runners which benefits Vermont Adaptive Ski and Sports. Additional information available here.
