An easy 25 mile ride through flats and rolling hills as well as 50 and 75 mile options providing cyclists with 3 mountain madness climb options...Hanging Rock, Sauratown Mountain, or Pilot Mountain. King and Queen of the Mountain awards will be presented to those heroic cyclists daring enough to not only climb the 3 mountains, but make it to the apex of each first (Just keep pedaling!
