Caesar's 2010 Race Course: Fast, usually dry singletrack, with countless small climbs and descents. Some descents are steep and moderately technical. One or two good creek crossings, so remember your wet lube. Start begins with 1/4 mile of slightly uphill pavement. There is a 1/2 mile section of pavement in the middle of the loop, and there is a 1.5 mile section of pavement to the finish at the park. The rest is all singletrack.

After the pre-race meeting at 12:45pm in Hatton-Luken park, all riders will roll down to the starting line at the end of Harveysburg Rd by the lake. Pro/Expert will roll off the line first at 1pm. The rest of the Divisions will roll off every few minutes. The course will run clockwise for 2010. (fyi: it was counter clockwise last year)
