Appalachia Visited Road Race - APRRS # 6
Part of the Appalachian Road Race Series (APRRS)
presented by Appalachian Bicycle Racing Association (ABRA)
[Results]
Appalachian Road Race Series Championship Race
59 Mile Course // [ Course Map ]
You can bring your fancy wheels for this one but do not forget your climbing legs, and yes, they can have hair on them too. We don't judge! This course is 59 miles long taking you through the mountain valleys of WV and ridge tops. This course has tons of long flat section(really more then any other ABRA event) along with two long stead climbs to remind you that this is a Appalachian Bicycle Racing Association event. Also these roads are in the nicest shape of any seen all year on the ABRA circuit so break out the deep dish carbon wheels for this one.
This course starts and finishes along side the beautiful Cheat River in Rowlesburg, West Virginia and has just about everything a cyclist could wish for in a bike race along the way. Beautiful river views, streaming descents, big climbs and gear pounds flats.
Sag support will be provided.
** This event is also the ABRA road race series finale and all series prizes and awards will take directly after that days race awards presentation. **
