2012 Six Hour Race to Sunset at Blankets Creek - August 4, 2012
We are pleased to announce the second running of the 6 Hour Race to Sunset at Blankets Creek Trails in Canton, GA. The race will be begin at 3 pm and racers will ride off into the sunset and race until 9 pm. Solo, two, and three person divisions are available. The awards ceremony will follow the race at 10 pm. If the parking lot expansion is complete there are rumors of a misting station...
We have shortened the course for 2012 so the lap will be approximately 7 miles. This will allow all racers to complete more laps of the course and will allow teams of three to still get in hopefully two laps each. We will also institute a firm 9 pm cutoff, meaning you need to be back by 9 pm or your last lap will not count. This will allow more ride time and give racers a chance to try to beat the clock to get that last lap in.
The race course will include a portion of the Van Michael Trail and the entire Dwelling Loop.
A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit SORBA Woodstock for the continued maintanence of the Blankets Creek and Rope Mill Park Trails. The event is a joint effort between Mountain Goat Adventures LLC and SORBA Woodstock.
