Shenanduro

The single track at Shenandoah River State Park will have you smiling all day long. Each loop will be approximately 8 miles long and will contain a mixture of two-track gravel and single-track trail. The team and soloist completing the most laps in 6 hours wins. A tie-in lap count is determined by the fastest combined lap time including pit stop and transition times. Racers will be able to start a new lap 45 minutes before the race duration cutoff. Teams race in a relay format and pass off to the next teammate in the transition area. There is no limit to how many times a teammate can do a lap before they hand off to another teammate. Team participants can go in any order. We will have plenty of space for you to set up your pit stop area for rest, recovery, and camaraderie.

We are excited once again to be part of the Virginia State Parks Adventure Series. This one-of-a-kind race series includes a wide-ranging selection of competitive events held in Virginia State Parks. Events include adventure races, running events, mountain bike races, cyclocross races, adventure triathlons, sprint triathlons, gravel rides, and old-school enduro races. Participants can win great prizes in one of two ways, either by amassing points in the Competition Category or by simply participating in a varying number of races.

By racing in the Shenanduro, you are automatically added to the series and will earn points toward series prizes.  And even better, the Shenanduro is a Bonus Points Race!!!

You can learn more about the series here.

Racers will be timed using MYLAPS Chip timing. All awards are based on chip times.
