Virgil Crest Aint For…well, for those looking for things to be more PC, know that Virgil Crest Aint Easy. Ascents and descents can be steep, cumulative gain and loss are significant, and there’s always the chance for weather to double down on those challenges. But, the sunrise as you crest the opening climb, the singletrack forest, the less technical footing allowing you to flow when you can, are beautiful. And while there’s a certain wonderful adventure to point to point courses, the repeat circuit or loop format allows for easy crew access and increased social connection.

To keep up with Ian’s, perhaps intentional, tradition… the course WILL be different in some manor from year’s prior. We will try to get out ahead with course maps and updates. We can promise there will be climbing…
