关于赛事

The Old Fort Fifty will be held on the rugged, legendary trails that have made the area famous in the mountain bike world while also incorporating some newer trails recently built by the G5 Trail Collective.  While the 30 mile distance is on the shorter side for an endurance race, don’t fool yourself into thinking this is going to be a walk in the park.  You will be served up a heaping helping of elevation gain, climbing 5,000 feet and descending an equal amount over fast and technical chunky terrain as well as some super omega flow. 

The Old Fort Fifty will be open to cyclists AND runners!

 

Starting and finishing at Camp Grier, racers will first head over to the Gateway Trail System, an incredibly well-built network of modern, flow-heavy trails.  From there, you’ll head up and over to the raw goodness of Star Gap and its infamous Heckle Rock.  Finally, you’ll have a couple “gotta get up to get down” climbs before being rewarded with descents down both Bernard Mountain and the ear-to-ear grin-inducing Kitsuma Trail.

 

There will be plenty of affordable indoor lodging and camping options at Camp Grier the night before and also after the event with plenty of room for the family to make a weekend out of it.  You can stay Friday night and wake up close to the start line, and if you decide to hang out Saturday night, you can race or spectate the Pisgah Enduro on Sunday!  During your stay, you’ll have access to the lake, a pool, showers, a post-race cookout, and refreshments provided by Oskar Blues (for our racers 21 and over).

 

Both the Old Fort Fifty and the Pisgah Enduro will be part of the King of Pisgah Series in 2024!
