1000 Samuel Miller Loop, Charlottesville, VA 22903

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Miller School of Albemarle's course is a moderately technical 4-mile loop with a combination of gravel, grass, double track, and single track trails. It begins with a steep gravel road climb before going up a steep double track climb and then a challenging singletrack climb. Yes, lots of climbing to start out the race--this means plenty of time and places to pass.

Miller School’s iconic course introduces over 2 miles of diverse and exciting trails. The Cutaway Flyover, Puke Hill, and Super Dee are just a few of the additions which are sure to challenge even the most tactical of riders.

The course goes back through central campus before looping through a grass to the finish line. The start and finish are in different locations. Lap times range between 14 minutes and 45 minutes.
