Day 1 • Arrival and an evening spin
21 mi/34 km 1,900 ft/580 km
Arrive any time after 3pm EST Friday afternoon to check in and join the team for an evening cruise.
As riders arrive and check in to their cabins, we'll explore a few local roads. After time to refresh, we'll meet in the communal space for a meal catered by our private chef. Before retiring to your private quarters, participants will get a chance to meet one another and a riders meeting will be held to go over what to expect over the next couple days.
Day 2 • An epic gravel adventure
53 mi/85 km 5,595 ft/1,705 m
After a filling breakfast catered by our private chef and plenty of coffee, riders will head out on their first big day of adventure. Day 2 takes riders into the heart of the Chattahoochee National Forest for some epic climbs and beautiful views. Expect about 50% gravel roads.
Riders will be met mid-way for an on-course lunch before heading back to the resort to wind down and then head over to dinner.
Day 3 • Winding roads, gravel climbs, and a winery
55 mi/89 km 5,420ft/1,652m
After coffee and breakfast riders will head out for the final day of riding that sees them crossing about an 80/20 split of pavement to road. Pavement sections will have you crossing some of the valley's best farmland and vistas, and the gravel sections will spice it up with a few Belgian style farm roads and an epic 6.8 mile climb to one of the highest peaks in the area.
Riders are provided a lunch mid-ride and will then return to the resort where we'll celebrate the end of the weekend and disperse from there.
