I am very good friends with the managers of this ride. They will
difinately have the red carpet out for all that attend, and you will be
treated to some tremendous hospitality!! Come on to the foothills in Ga,
and enjoy some of the most breathtaking views that you will ever see!!

This is an invitation to anyone who would like to attend the Gold Rush
Ride. What is the Gold Rush Ride?
The Gold Rush route covered the same trail used the old Sheriff Posse
ride that was held in the '60's '70's and 80's. IT is a trail that is
mostly US forest Service roads with several outstanding views!!
This years course has been planned to minimize continuous up and down and
includes long, gradual elevation changes. The away vet check at the top
of Tray Mountain has limited space and access. Management will provide
water and hay and people treats for the riders and will take up on the
mountain anything the riders wish to have at the first vet check. All
other vet stops for the 50 and 100 milers and all vet stops for the 25
milers will be in base camp with total access for the crews. This ride
will be a spectacular scenic ride!!
We hope to see you at Georgia's first ever 100 mile ride!!! There must
be at least 5 entries for the 100 to make.
