There are 4 main sections to the course, all of which have a different feel and flow.

There is no section that is particularly far from the Start / Finish line, and the entire course circles the property and it’s sections. Please DO NOT ride the course outside of race days. We would like to continue using this property, so maintaining a positive relationship with the property owner is essential for future events.

They have all been instructed on how to keep the race running safely for all, and know the easiest and least disruptive route to different areas – please listen to them!
