Quite a week....




Alrighty....so after months of work, SSUSA is splitting ways with the Conasauga Ranger District and the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests. Mountain biking is under attack there, and we don't feel we should have to limit a race to a paltry 30 racers just to play nice. In the nicest words possible; Thanks but no thanks. We'll all continue to ride the great trails in the area, and the local clubs will continue to do great trail work....but so we don't hurt anymore feelings, we're taking the race on the road

So the news everyone is waiting for....

WE HAVE A HOME !!!!!!!!

We're headed to Athens. Like R.E.M. and the B-52s Athens. That Athens. We got ourselves a nice big 'ole piece of private land to play on. Singletrack, open spaces, plenty of camping, and a Barn. Hawkes Creek Farm will be our gracious host this year, along with the unsuspecting town of Athens, Georgia. Oh the possibilities....

AND

SSUSA is also going to be the Georgia State Single Speed Championship. So all you proud peaches can vie for bragging rights and the state jersey in a number of different categories. More details to come. We're a single speed race after all, and have limited capacity to deliver/handle new news, so stay tuned and you'll get all the updates you need.
