- Richmond, Va –
The 2010 Virginia Off Road Series will launch our 3rd season on March 7 with the first Camp Hilbert race outside Maidens, Va. Continuing on our quest to keep things interesting, our series will cover events, new and old, across the state through the end of October. New events in southwestern and northern Virginia will challenge our athletes to some great events. But these events are not the only thing new and exciting to the Virginia Off Road Series!
This year, the Virginia Off Road Series has added a new Enduro Category: XCAT. These competitors will only be scored on the longer events vs. the traditional cross country. These slow twitch athletes asked us for their own Cat and we have delivered. There will be plenty of opportunities for the XCAT’s to take on one another with our Calendar.
The Virginia Off Road Series will be partnering with Endorphin Fitness, CyclingCentralVa, Friends of Pocahontas State Park, Virginia State Parks and MTBRaceNews.com for more excitement to the season. Endorphin Fitness excels at bringing the best out of athletes, their new column, EF Advice, will be updated monthly with new training ideas. CyclingCentralVa will offer the Virginia Off Road Series an exclusive Forum for our athletes to discuss the Series and related topics. The Virginia State Parks returns with their sponsorship of the Wildman Award. MTBRaceNews.com will be delivering customer tailored coverage with articles from our athletes.
An exciting new venture this year is our PayDirt Program. The Virginia Off Road Series will be working closely with the Friends of Pocahontas State Parks to implement this rewarding program. PayDirt will reward athletes with extra points for hours worked in Virginia’s great trails. These points will be added to their final score and will make a difference.
Technology will be working for the Virginia Off Road Series in the form of Facebook and Twitter. One of the quickest ways to get our audience, Facebook will carry up to the minute news. Our Twitter connection can update our website from any location that we have cell service. All this will help keep the Virginia Off Road Series ‘live’ with information.
