Open to cyclists of all abilities, and designed to test your early season fitness level, riders will experience the thrill of cycling on fast roads through open country side and pastoral farmlands in beautiful and historic northern Frederick County, Maryland.

Starting on the picturesque campus of Mount Saint Mary’s University, 6-hour riders will travel twice around the “Long Loop” of 33.9 miles whereas 3-Hour riders will traverse the long loop once. After completing the required larger circuit, riders will transit to the Short Loop” of 6.6 miles. All riders will complete as many of the short loop as you can until the clock runs out.

At the end of each of the loops (long and short), riders will pass through a timing station that will count your laps, and record your time down to a tenth of a second.
