Gasline Bypass

An alternative to the long and straight trail built upon a gas line right-of-way. This trail is a singletrack bypass of a particularly grueling stretch of the old doubletrack route nicknamed "The Bitches".

While being slightly longer and having its share of ups and downs, this route does not have the steep grades that are characteristic of the original. It also alleviates some of the congestion in this portion of the course and offers a bit of variety for those doing the 24, along with being a much more enjoyable route for users riding here at times other than during the race.
