A 30-mile, point to point race dubbed the Mt. Borah Epic will be a highlight event of the 2013 CAMBA Festival of Trails. CAMBA, short for Chequamegon Area Mountain Bike Association, has developed miles of pristine, smooth single track that the Epic route will pay tribute to. All of the race profits will go back to CAMBA, benefiting the continuous growth and development of trail systems. The festival in Hayward, Wisconsin, will be held June 8-9, 2013.
Racers will start at Telemark Resort, located near Cable, then ride south towards Hayward, finishing 30 miles down the trail at Hatchery Creek Park, just outside of town. Along the route, riders will traverse everything from fast, rolling single track, to twisting, challenging trail sections that make this race truly epic. Other unique features include a 200-foot "log prime shortcut" and a section of trail CAMBA calls the "Gravity Cavity.” All these features and more to ensure the racecourse takes full advantage of CAMBA’s trail building expertise.
