The Shenandoah Mountain 100, held in Virginia’s George Washington National Forest is the only true big mountain 100 on the east coast. The challenging and fun course that takes 600 bicyclists over six large mountains and along amazing scenic singletrack is second in popularity only to the Leadville 100. The Virginian event has long been the keystone of the NUE Series and always has excitement in-store. This year it is Hurricane Issac that is bashing New Orleans and Mississippi and could send some waves of moisture towards the event. This mountainous terrain is a perfect course for wet weather. The rocks get slippery and the riders roll on!
