LOW GAP: Grasshopper Adventure Series

NEW this year! We are stoked to have the City of Ukiah as a sponsor and host city. We will start with a neutral lead out at Todd Grove Park. The race starts after we hit Orr Springs Rd.  This quiet Mendocino County Rd. climbs 1800 ft over the first 9 miles before dropping into the Orr Springs area and then rolls along Montgomery Woods State Reserve. There is a climb to the Comptche/Orr Springs Rd and Low Gap Rd. From mile 20-22 you gain 600″ and then make the turn onto dirt on Low Gap Rd. This county road and MRC is all dirt until mile 33. Beginning at mile 22 the you will climb from 1,100 ft to the intersection with Miller Ridge. This year we have a contract with MRC (Mendocino Redwood Company) to use their land. From mile 31.3 to 44 we are on private property that is not open for pre-riding.  From here you have a ripping 13 mile gravel and paved  descent to the finish.

There will be tent camping at Todd Grove Park in Ukiah as well as van camping at the Anton Stadium parking lot in Ukiah.
