The Stokesville Sixty/Forty highlights some of the finest single track around the Stokesville Lodge/Campground and the George Washington National Forest. The route travels along newly aligned trails made possible by a Recreational Trails Program Grant that was administered by the Shenandoah Valley Bicycle Coalition. They have become the George Washington National Forests most sought after trails.

Stokesville 60/40k Course Map(s) - Routes are pending - shown are 2023 routes.

The courses will be different this year. A tad bit harder - but still a great time. We are not permitted to use Virginia State Roads at this time for any of our events. For that reason we are stuck with these routes. We will have a shuttle from the end of Tillman Rd. back to the Campground for those doing the 40K route. The timing on the 40K ends at the bottom of Tillman West Trail. The shuttle will be waiting down at the end of Tillman Rd. The shuttle will have its' rewards.....
