Event Description:

A new event to the Marin World Cup series, the GP Ken Hushvod ITT is a demanding 5 miles circuit comprised of 2 major climbs (1 road, 1 dirt), 2 very technical and tricky descents and a ridge top false flat section.  The course is run on a combination of paved road, dirt fire road and single track and is designed to be contested on cyclocross bikes. 

The course starts and finishes at the San Anselmo city limit sign on Butterfield Rd in Sleepy Hollow and is run in a counter-clockwise circuit.  It is NOT a closed course and riders can be expected to see automobiles, pedestrians, hikers and possibly other cyclists. Timing will be done on the honor system.

Anyone over the age of 18 is welcome to attend.  Registration is free but the promoter is accepting donations.  Leffe, Duvel and Stella Artois are preferred but anything of Western European origin is acceptable currency.

*******This event is run entirely for fun and not for profit.  To borrow a phrase: "The less fun you have, the more you'll pay."  Anyone found taking this event seriously will be banished from all Marin World Cup events for a time period no less than 1 year.  Also, you will suck.  Safety first.********
