We had another great race at our Heritage Park Classic! Even though we had a little rain on Saturday morning and some chilly temperatures on Sunday, we definitely enjoyed the cooler weather! Our student-athletes gave it their all on a very tough course! Thank you to the Oconee County Parks and Rec Department for their continued partnership with the race! Our final race and Peach State Championship will be held Nov. 3-4 at Dauset Trails Nature Center. Reminder: there is NO CAMPING and NO DOGS allowed at Dauset Trails Nature Center. Please do not call the Dauset Trails Nature Center. Check out our Race Flyer and Interactive Map for all the details! We hope to see each of you there!

SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT
JOE'S NO FLATS
trek
Thinking of going tubeless?? Joe’s No Flats is the official sealant of the Georgia League. One of the simplest upgrades to a bike is the tubeless set-up. Running lower air pressure gives more traction, a smoother ride, and most important, prevents flats! Joe’s No Flats uses micro sealing particles to work quickly under pressure to seal up the tire compounds. Contact emily@bikefettish.com or come by the Joe’s tent at the races this season to learn about the ultimate tubeless set-up.
