The infamous Dirty Dozen race, created in Pittsburgh, is returning to Knoxville!

-$10 entry fee

This is an incredibly unique race because it combines a casual group ride with a grueling race. We will start at Crafty (Emory Place) at 11am and ride out at a casual no drop pace. Periodically, we will cross paths with a one of the many noteworthy hills in Knoxville an announcement will be made that points are on the line. When we reach the bottom of the climb the race is on!
Make it to the top first to receive 10pts, 2nd = 9pts, 3rd = 8pts, and so on... The riders will regroup at the top of each hill and the casual ride to the next will continue. There will be an amp-you-up music bike, a cheering section on one particular hill, and lots of trash talk in between each challenge.
At the end of the day the points will be tallied and a champion will be crowned!
Strava will make things much easier for judging and is recommended but not required.
Join us for a one-of-a-kind race as we continue this new tradition in Knoxville!
