2008 Race Format

The Attack on Swayback is a NORBA-sanctioned race (Permit #???), and a NORBA license is required for 'Expert/Pro' riders only and will be available on race day if needed. NORBA no longer requires 'Beginner' and 'Sport' classes to buy a one day license!

Official course is subject to change, but is likely to be similiar to the 2007 course, consisting of rolling single track through dense forest with a fair amount of roots and rocks. The course will be marked in advance of the race to allow pre-riding. Expect an approximate 10 mile loop with beginners completing one lap, Sport riders completing two laps, and Expert/Pro riders completing three laps.

Classes will be divided into the following age groups.
