Hickory Ridge Rush Virtual 2021
CANCELLED
The Hickory Ridge Rush is your virtual singletrack challenge for 2021. Fall is the perfect time to explore Hickory Ridge. The trails at Hickory wind their way around numerous lakes with wooded, rolling terrain. Added amenities include crisp air, spectacular colors, and sparkling lakes. CORBA and Friends of Hickory Ridge have worked together for many years to make this trail system the destination that it is! Займы онлайн бесплатно на карту.
The Hickory Ridge Rush will include long and short courses for both the mountain bike and the trail run races. An option for those non-competitive participants will be a Furry Friends category on a smaller section of singletrack. All events will take place from the main trailhead outside of Bloomer.

Courses
The competitive courses will consist almost entirely of singletrack trails since racing virtually means less need for wider trails for passing. The Long Course will be approximately 19-20 miles and the Short Course will be approximately 4-5 miles. It’s the same course whether you mountain bike or trail run it! As with any race you will want to ride and run within your ability and use caution, especially if you are newer to mountain biking or trail running.
A non-competitive option will be available for those wishing to explore the area on a smaller section of singletrack. This is a great hike with your furry friends or camera to catch some nice scenic photos.
One or Two Laps
This option lets you choose to compete in the long or short course, with one or two lap distances. Mountain Bike or Trail Run, it’s up to you! Want to compete in more than one or all of them? The long, the short, the one and the double? Go for it!
Dual Sport
Do you consider yourself a trail runner AND a mountain biker? Then you can bike one lap and run one lap. Or vice versa. The laps must be on the same course. For example bike the short lap, run the short lap or run the long lap, bike the long lap. All in one effort and record your total elapsed time.
Over The Top
Begin by selecting your preferred mode of travel, mountain bike or trail run. Ride or run as many laps long as you can in ONE EFFORT. Reasonable “self aid station” stops between laps are allowed, but to ensure this is “in one effort”, please abide by the rule of no aid stops longer than 15 minutes.
Total Rush
Begin by selecting your preferred mode of travel, mountain bike or trail run. Ride or run as many miles on the course over the entire event time (9/25-10/3) and record the total distance covered.
Furry Friends Walk
Do you and your dog enjoy exploring the woods and trails at Hickory Ridge? Then the event for you is to take your furry friend(s) out for a walk and record your time and distance (if you know it). This is a non-competitive event.

- Male and Female overall winners in the One and Two lap options for both mountain bike and trail run events (Long and short options).
