Sobre o evento

Low registration fees, a relaxed race atmosphere and all profits to charity… 

Mt. Ascutney is the “People's Hillclimb”!   
 

Join us for an ascent up one of the USA’s most iconic climbs! You’ll traverse a state park road that’s completely closed to traffic through a breathtaking forest canopy with bubbling streams and all that jazz. Compete head to head against some of the finest hill climbers on the east coast, or simply conquer one of the most challenging ascents in the country. 

We're going again with a mass start format this year. Pick your wave and push yourself head to head against your peers. By popular demand we will go back to awards by age group and gender :) 

Our partner is once again the Ascutney Trails Association non-profit and all proceeds from the event will go to their important work developing trails for public use on Mt. Ascutney.

 

REGISTRATIONJuniors (under 18) use the code JUNIOR for a $10 discountNo USAC license requiredAll proceeds to charity!

 

FAQ

I'm not sure what my FTP is or which wave to register for? Don't stress it! The waves are just to get groups of riders with similar ability the chance to challenge themselves against each other. Just pick one you think is about right. You can always go in and edit your wave later in Bikereg if you change your mind.

I'm not super interested in head to head, I just want to race against the clock? No problem! We will still have chip timing so you can see your official time and how to you stack up against your age group and/or your previous best.

I'm only a Cat 4 but I smash up hills and want to race in Wave A against the heavy hitters? Go for it! The USAC categories are listed as a guide just to help you find the right level of competition, there are no official Cat restrictions. 

What happens if I decide to change my Wave? You can change your category after registering in Bikereg up until registration closes.
