About the Race

The Fool's Gold 100 is Georgia's first and only 100 mile mountain bike race, brought to you by the race director of the largest and most fun 24 hour mountain bike race in the Southeast, the BURN 24 Hour Challenge! This race will be about lots of sweet singletrack, a few gravel road grunts, and the best party of your summer! Our course designer, Dave, says this route is TOUGH. Be prepared to ride hard..and drink a few brews. We promise, you won't be disappointed! With the low entry fee, great schwag, all of the essential amenities (i.e. food, lodging, beer) ALL WEEKEND!, and EQUAL CASH payout ($300-1st, $200-2nd, $100-3rd) for the Open Men/Womens class in the 100 miler, we think this one will be on your race calendar for good! We will have a 50 mile race for those of you not into the whole 100. We're working on some great prizes for the racers the 50 miler!

About the Festival

You will have the option to purchase a Race-only entry or a Race+Festival entry which will get you lodging (bunkhouses at the Race Start/Finish), hot meals and local microbrews all weekend! Local band Rare Beat Express will be playing at the post-race festivities on Saturday, also. There are HOT SHOWERS, real bathrooms, and are three fire rings and we will build the fires!! So, just bring some friends, some chairs and stay the weekend. We also suggest bringing a sleeping bag and pillow for the bunkhouse beds. More details to be posted as they develop..
