Wakefield - Race Course

We went to Wakefield on Friday July 4th. We thought it might be closed because it looked like it rained during the night in Maryland. But I called the rec office at Wakefield and the guy said they didn't get much rain. So a few of us headed out there. It was Wayne, Lindsay, Henry, and Andrew. We had a great time out there because it looked like they just had a race or preparing for one. A course was laid out with yellow signs with black arrows. It was a very fun course to ride that was fast with lots of twist and turns. We rode it several times and had a blast!

Fountain Head/Wakefield

On this weekend, we headed to two places. First was Fountain Head in Virginia. Then second was WakeField since it was on the way back. Fountain is always a challenge because this place seems like it's 80% uphill. It was fun but really tough for me(andrew). I look forward to going back in a month. I provided a ton of footage below of both places. These are all cam footages from my brother and I.

Near the end of Fountain Head is a vicious downhill. First I'm recording Austin and Lindsay coming down the hill. Then 1st person view footage of me going down the hill. Then Lindsay's 1st person view footage of going down the hill.


Not sure why I put this in here. I thought it was funny.


Map of Route we did (from Lindsay's GPS).


Elevation of Route we did (from Lindsay's GPS). Only look at from 0 - 7.5 miles.

Austin's New 29er


Everytime we go to wakefield, we try to get up to top of this hill. So far, no one on a single speed has made it up. Wayne made it up on his geared bike.
