Interested in Six Gap?
Lumpkin County High School, 2001 Indian Dr., Dahlonega, GA, USEver thought of doing Six Gap? This is the year to do it! This posting is to gauge interest, you are not committing to doing it, just showing interest and that will allow us to start planning. We will make this a fun friend trip. There are two options, the Six Gap and the Three Gap rides.
About the Six Gap Ride:
Six Gap, 104 mile: The Six Gap Century’s ultra challenging route takes you up and down six of the steepest climbs in the North Georgia Mountains. Test your stamina with more than 11,200 feet of vertical climbing over the 104 mile course. Elevations for the six gaps in this ride range from 1,400 feet to 3,460 feet. The toughest climb, Hogpen Gap, will test even the strongest riders, averaging a 7% grade for seven miles, with sections as steep as 15%.

Very similar to climbing day in Costa Rica, 59 miles, 6,000 ft of climbing, a challenging ride unto itself.
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/35408394All riders are expected to ride in a pace line safely. New riders are expected to hang in the rear of the group to get acclimated. Please arrive 15 minutes before the start time so the group can discuss the plans, introduce new riders and leave on time. Everyone rides at their own risk and this group assumes no responsibility for any injuries. Team Elite is not responsible for any injuries that may occur during any event we host. Paceline experience is expected if you want to attend this group ride.
