Thanks to all our sponsors and supporters of the 2008 Snake Creek Gap 6 Mountain Time Trials


This will be a time trial event along the Pinhoti Trail through National Forest Lands. To participate, you can register via active.com or on-site. There is a Money Class for both men and women riding the 34Mile route and 14 other categories to compete for prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Once you pay the entry fee, you can choose to ride any or all the three of the event dates. All registered riders will receive a quality t-shirt, sags, shuttle and a official time. NWGA SORBA provides shuttles and sag support.

  • Active.com $65 ( On-site Registration $75 )
  • Active.com - Money Class Men > 18 years old, 34Miler $100, ( On-site Registration $110 )
  • Active.com - Money Class Women > 18 years old, 34Miler $100 ( On-site Registration $110 )

Note: If you would like to race to compete in both the 17Mile and 34Mile events, you will need to register twice. One for each distance category. If you register for one distance and want to try another distance for a personal challenge, we will provide shuttle support, but your time will not be included in the results to avoid confusion with those competing.

Registration
You can register on-line using Active.com or register on-site before the time trial. Check-in and on-site registration will be in Dalton at Northwest Georgia Trade and Convention Center gravel parking lot. Maps will be provided and riders will be shuttled to the starting point of their event.

For the 34 mile riders, on-site registration will be from 7:30am to 10:00 am. The shuttles for the 34 mile time trial will depart from the trade center at 10:00 am.

For the 17 mile riders, on-site registration will be from 7:30am to 11:30 am. The shuttles for the 17 mile time trial will depart from the trade center at 11:30 am.


A Schedule of events for this Saturday is as follows:
 
7:00AM     Volunteers Meet and Setup The Snake Pit (the registration, souvenir, parking, etc. area)
 
7:30AM     Registration Table Opens & Souvenir Table Opens
 
9:30AM     Start Loading Bikes on Shuttle Trailers

Course
The rider can select either the 17 mile event, or if you are tough enough you can choose to do the 34 mile Event . These events are truly epics, the 34-mile distance is quite an epic to complete. Over 90% of it is on single-track trails. These will not be your normal 17 or 34-mile epic rides. They both will require extreme physical condition, so please use good judgment if you decide to ride!

Age Groups
In an effort to make this interesting, we will have several different categories <35, <50, >50. We also will have 1 Clydesdale class and two female classes <30 and >30. We will also recognize the top Female & Male overall riders as the 2008 SORBA GPT SCG 6 Mountain Champions.

Another category we have is for SingleSpeed, for those who want to take the "Snake" challenge to another level.

 

Payout and Prizes
We restructured our payout to include 1st, 2nd and 3rd place fastest time for the entire series. For the Money Class, 1st will receive $500, 2nd will receive $300, 3rd Place will receive $175. The Money Class is for the 34mile distance only. For the non-Money Class, 1st, 2nd and 3rd places will receive prizes based on their placement.

 

Directions
I-75 to exit 333 Walnut Avenue go west up the mountain approx 1/4 mile turn left into the Trade Center, the gravel parking lot is on your right at the Trade Center.
