The Fool’s Gold 100 is Georgia’s first and only 100 mile mountain bike race, brought to you by the race director of the largest and most fun 24 hour mountain bike race in the Southeast, the BURN 24 Hour Challenge! Fool’s Gold 100 will be the 6th race of the 2009 National Ultra Endurance Mountain Bike Race Series. Expect lots of singletrack with a few gravel road grunts. Be prepared to ride hard..and drink a few brews. With the low entry great schwag, all of the essential amenities (i.e. optional lodging with meals & beer) all weekend, and cash payout for the Open Men/Womens class in the 100 miler, we think this one will be on your race calendar for good! The guys from Sweetwater Brewing Co. will again be giving a case of Sweetwater 420 to the first racer to cross the finish line at 4:20pm…this could be a good sprint to watch.

…and,last but certainly not least…the guys from Terrapin Beer will, once again, be sponsoring the Turtle Award, a case of Terrapin brew for the last person to finish the 50 miler and the 100 miler. DFL never sounded so good,

Bushwhack Adventures is taking the Impossible Panther AR to new lengths – 24 hours! Adventure racers have enjoyed the challenges and scenery of the Uwharrie Lakes Region. With 24 hours on the clock, Bushwhack will be able to introduce racers to even more of this beautiful area. For racers not quite ready for a 24 hour event, there will be at least one shorter course option available, maybe two. The course designers are still hard at work laying out another great course, so final details are not available yet.

On May 2nd, 2009 Teams of two riders will race to reach 4 of 7 checkpoints, in any order, and return to the start/finish. Checkpoint locations will remain secret until start-time and there is no suggested route. Routes will vary between 50-70 miles, will include 9,000-15,000 feet of climbing, and should take 6-12 hours to complete. PLEASE DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE EXTREME DIFFICULTY OF THIS EVENT.

The Pisgah MTB Adventure will be held deep in the Pisgah National Forest, one of the most beautiful, rugged, and unforgiving areas in the nation. There will be little to no water or food support on course. Once you leave the start/finish you are on your own. There will be no drops, sag wagons, or other outside support available. Be prepared for any circumstances you may encounter including, but not limited to: medical emergencies, navigational errors, inoperable equipment, wild animals, and stinging/poisonous insects and plants. AGAIN, PLEASE DO NOT UNDER- ESTIMATE THE EXTREME DIFFICULTY OF THIS EVENT.

Check out the link for more information, I’ve raced this one for the past two years and it has quickly become one of my favorites…perhaps it’s the low swamp lands of SC or re-tracing the steps of Patriot and Soldier Francis Marion or just so early in the year it gets you on track for the rest of the season…

The annual BOK Night event at Lake Johnson. The BOK night event is usually a ton of fun and is typically not extremely long, but of course the extra challenge is the playing in the dark. It is good practice for anyone needing some night nav. training.

The exact details and start time we be post once available from the BOK. Feel free to check their webpage: http://backwoodsok.or…
