START TRAINING!
The longest and last of this years Hillbilly Hill Challenge Series. From the Weaver Estate ride to White Saddle, return on bike. Leave bike at Matt Weaver's house, run up Lower Clamshell (Hillbilly Hill) to Survey Marker at point, back to house.
Simple and sweet!
Below is gate to White Saddle strava...we'll do group rolling start from Weaver to gate and gate will be start...so this is the climb part...same way back.



This is the run from Weaver to Point...same route back.



For those just getting started or getting back in shape and ready to start small or liking bike or run...not both...do either portions or just part....

Remember, while some "race" each other and are competing for the event and series props, all events in the series are created for all levels of athletes and are primarily designed for fun and to motivate us all to get off the couch and on the trail...

So don't stress, just do!

Fans welcome!

See you on the trails!

All participants who did all three events will get a prize!
