Trans-Sylvania returns for its second edition

The Trans-Sylvania Epic mountain bike stage race will return for its second running on May 29 through June 4, 2011. Organizers announced the route for the next edition at a media camp last week. Building upon the success of its inaugural year, the Trans-Sylvania will again include seven days of racing located in and around State College, Pennsylvania. While the stage venues will generally stay the same, the organizers have tweaked start and finish locations and specific routing within each stage.
