Lost River Classic: Saturday, August 16, 2025 at 9 AM

The Lost River Classic returns for its third year on August 16, 2025! Registration opens Christmas Day 2024 at an early bird rate of $75 before going up to $90 on January 2 and $100 on August 1.

The Lost River Classic presented by the Lost River Trails Coalition is a gravel race to support the development of multi-use and mountain biking trails in Lost River State Park, Hardy County, West Virginia. Proceeds from the event are split between LRTC's general funds for trail maintenance/small projects and the Cryptids, Hardy County's NICA youth mountain bike team.  This event is inspired by Jay Moglia, the founder of Raw Talent Ranch and the first President of the Lost River Trails Coalition. Jay once ran a road race in Mathias by the same name, and we thought it was a fitting tribute to recast his race as a collection of some of the most challenging and beautiful roads we can string together in Hardy County. 

This is a very challenging event. We recommend gravel bikes with low, almost mountain bike gearing and 38mm+ tires for most riders.

The Lost River Classic is part of the West Virginia Gravel Series. Qualifying participants across many categories for long, medium, and short routes can win additional cash or prizes. See the WVGS website for rules.

Routes and Prizes

The Lost River Classic (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/49458335) consists of an 85 mile, mostly gravel route primarily in Hardy County, WV. The route is undergoing a redesign, so check back for more details by early summer. The 2025 route will be about 10 miles longer but have less overall elevation (8,000 feet of elevation in 80 miles) and technical aspects than previous iterations.

Men's, Women's, and Nonbinary Open: $500/3All other categories: prizes

The Medium Route (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/49458343) joins the 85 mile bike race for the first half of the ride and returns on Old Route 55 to Baker rather than heading as far north as Kirby. This route is less challenging and technical than the original WVGS Medium route, but will be about 60 miles long with 6,000 feet of climbing. Check back in the early summer for the final route.

Men's and Women's Open: top finisher prizeMen's and Women's 40+: top finisher prizeMen's and Women's 50+: top finisher prizeMen's and Women's 60+: top finisher prize

The Cove Mountain Loop (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/43630063) is a 28 mile circuit departing with the rest of the cyclists, but turns left toward Middle Cove Road and Aid Station 1 without crossing over Basore Road into Virginia. This is still a challenging route on beautiful roads, but without the sufferfest of the major climbs. There is still one gravel climb and descent on this route. 

 

Bail Outs and Time Cuts

The long route is very challenging, but it is possible to bail out after Squirrel Gap road to join the medium route.

 

Aid Stations

Aid stations are placed roughly 20 miles apart:

Aid stations will be published when the new routes are finalized in June.

Aid stations will be relatively minimalistic: water, HEED by Hammer Nutrition, and Coke and snacks like pretzels, chips, trail mix, peanut butter and jelly, fruit, pickles, etc. 

 

Event Details

Package pick-up and same day registration will be available beginning at 7:30 AM on August 16.

All event categories will depart from the Mathias Community Center at 9 AM on August 16, with the family ride a few minutes later.

There will be a post-ride meal and party at the Mathias Community Center. A meal ticket is included for every category except for the family ride. Additional meal tickets can be purchased separately in the event registration for $20. One free T-shirt will be given to every participant of every route except for the family ride. Additional T-shirts can be purchased in the online event registration.

The event will be held rain or shine, although we may be course changes for heavy rain. 

 

Fundraising

Optional additional fundraising is possible through Bikereg’s partner site, Pledgereg. Upon registering for the event, you will have an individual fundraising page. You can also create or join a fundraising team.

The fundraising team that raises the most money for the Lost River Trails Coalition will receive a free weekend in the Lost River Barn, which can accommodate up to 18 individuals.

 

Equipment

All riders must wear a bicycle helmet.

The Lost River Classic route features more than 50% gravel. Some of this can be relatively rough and we recommend gravel bikes with tires at or above 36mm width. We do not recommend road bikes. Any type of bike is suitable for the family ride.

There are aid stations every 25 or so miles, but you should bring with you two full bottles (it can be hot in August).

 

Transfers and Changes

Registration transfers can be made from person to person and route changes may be made online until August 15 at 5pm. After this, only route changes may be made by informing the registration table a check-in before 9AM on August 16. These changes can be made in your Bikereg account.

 

Accommodations

There are several hotels and bed and breakfasts nearby, ranging from Lost River to Wardensville, as well as the South Branch Inn in Moorefield. Guesthouse Lost River is among the most popular hotels in the area. Lost River State Park features a variety of cabins.  These are in high demand, so we suggest booking them well in advance of the event weekend. Adjacent to the park is the private Big Ridge Campground that can accommodate both tents and RVs. Please see the Hardy County Convention and Visitors Bureau for more information about lodging.
