Fool's Gold MTB Race

About The Race

Fool's Gold 100 is part of the National Ultra Endurance Series and all governing rules of the NUE apply to the Fool's Gold 100.

The 2012 Fool's Gold 50/100 will again be based out of the beautiful Montaluce Winery in Dahlonega, GA. As far as the course, expect lots of fast & flowy singletrack, some doubletrack, and a fair dose of gravel road grunts. There are a couple of longer sustained climbs, but the rollers will probably be the ones to get you.

Hammer Nutrition will be sponsoring the aid stations along the course. You will have access to HEED, Hammer Gel, and Endurolytes at all aid stations.

Stay tuned to this page and our Fool's Gold 100 facebook page for news about the upcoming 2012 event. We got a lot of great feedback from 2011 and it is our mission to provide top quality events. We assure you that Fool's Gold 2012 will be even BETTER! See you there.

Attention Spectators and Racers:

Bike29.com has been a great supporter of Fool's Gold since the beginning. We are super excited for them to sponsor the KOM/QOM (Cooper Gap- top of the first major climb). We will also have an official spectator shuttle running to take spectators to the Bike29 KOM/QOM. The shuttle will leave 10 minutes prior to the start of the 100 mile race but you can only get on the official shuttle if you have a costume. If you want to cheer people on this is going to be the best place to go early in the race. Costumes, cowbells, and heckling are all encouraged and some lucky spectators might even win some swag up there. First male and female (in the 100 and the 50) to reach Cooper Gap will come home with a prize from Bike29.com!
