Hello again all,

We have had to revise the course for The Glory Days in hopes to deliver a better product and overall race for everyone. We are doing some funky things in order to provide more downhills on single track and just a better course at the end of the day.

Here are some files for the Glory Days Course; a kml file, gpx file, and a overview picture. The numbers show the direction of the course and will coincide with markers on the trail. The CAT 3 and Juniors will go straight from number 12 to number 14. The trail will have small yellow flags. Some of the trail is brand new and still needs some work and tweaking so please be patient and know that we are spending all week improving the trail from a racer's perspective. The trail should be completely finished by Tuesday July 21st at 5pm. The Pro/Cat 1/Cat 2 Trail is 4.32 miles long with 775ft of elevation gain a lap. The Cat 3/Junior trail is approximately 4 miles long with 700ft of elevation gain.

As listed in the previous e-mail, here are the available pre-ride times:
