We’re starting off 2024 with a Louisville area classic, Ft Duffield! We had a blast bringing an enduro race to this trail system last year and are adding even more fun with an XC event this year! Duff has rooty hand built fun mixed with a flow trail. This small mountain overlooking the Salt and Ohio Rivers packs a punch, and will surprise many who have not yet been to this hidden gem. Portions of entry fees go to support the trails at Ft. Duff.
West Point, Kentucky sits on the Ohio River just south of Louisville, and north of Ft. Knox. It is likely to see a Black Hawk, Chinook, or other military aircraft flying overhead during the weekend while out on training drills. The Ft. Duffield trails are known as a classic to many KY and IN MTB riders as it’s been the host of Freeride features, Downhill races, and more modernly, the Enduro spot local to Louisville. We’re excited as this race will bring new school flow mixed with old school technical, and narrow racing. The runs are short, the climb is paved, and the times will be tight! Don’t miss out!
Race HQ will be in the main parking lot at Ft. Duffield. Parking will be down Honeysuckle Ln, and at the boat ramp/camping area. (We will share those details closer to the race.) We are working on getting arrangements for folks to camp for free if they like. More to come on all of that.
FREE SWAG - We will do something for the first X amount of racers. Trying to see what sponsors have. Sign up early and you will get in on the mix for the extra goodies.
COURSE DETAILS
The course will be well marked with signs and tape in needed areas. Over all the enduro will have many similar or same stages as 2023. The XC will be a shorter loop, but with some decent climbing and technical bits. Expect XC maps to launch late March. Enduro maps to launch two weeks before the race.
RACE PACKET
We send a race packet via email the week of the race to help answer questions about directions, scheudle, weather plans, etc. Typically you get that on Wednesday or Thursday of the race week. In the meantime, hit us up with questions.
