3 EPIC STAGES - HILL CLIMB, SHORT COURSE, LONG COURSE

The 6th Annual Burnt Bridge Classic will expand into 3 stages of racing over two days, adding a new dimension of gravel racing that is one of a kind in Canada.   While there is an overall competition over the three stages, it will be possible to do a single race, two stages, or the full three races.

 

Launching from the new and expansive venue in Deerholme (Duncan) BC on Mosaic Forest Management land, cycling enthusiasts of various age groups and abilities will tackle a Hill Climb Race, a Short Circuit Race, and a Long Course over the weekend of May 18-19, 2024.  The challenging terrain consists of long steep climbs, twisty descents, and breathtaking views.  The event will be supported by  feed zones and ride ambassadors who will provide assistance and support to ensure a fun and safe ride.   

*Overnight stay options will be made available, which include camping onsite, or staying at one of our partner hotels in the Cowichan Valley.
