Tom Dula’s Revenge Results

What a great day! Thanks to everyone for coming out and making the inaugural event such a success. I am so happy to hear so many people loved the course as much I do, and I can not say enough good things about the crew from Cool Breeze Cyclery for working so hard to ensure everything ran smoothly and stayed safe, while helping to raise money for GrabLifeByTheHandlebars.org – the Jon Clark Relief Fund.

Click over to Blue Mountain Revival to check out the results, the Capo Cycling Apparel King of Pain Series standings are updated HERE, and be sure to sign up for The Ascent on August 11 at the Blue Ridge Mountain Club in Blowing Rock.

Please post your race photos and video on the Tom Dula’s Revenge Facebook page, and check your junk mail folder tomorrow for a racer survey so you can give your honest and anonymous feedback, and help measure the economic impact of the event.

2013 Ascent Info

The Ascent 9.25 mile Bike and 3.5 mile Run Hill Climbs
Sunday, August 11, Blue Ridge Mountain Club, Blowing Rock

This year you will have the option to double up and do BOTH of the Hardest Hill climbs in the South. Sign up for the Bike hill climb at 10AM, then compete in the Run at Noon – best combined uphill time wins (no downhill racing, that’s just begging for trouble). Of course, most folks will participate in either the Bike or the Run, and this year we will have shuttles available to make it easier to get from the finish to the legendary post-race party. Look for registration information to be posted on the Facebook page and the next newsletter.
