May 6, 2001. At 3800 feet, Poor Mountain is the highest point in the Roanoke Valley where riders have no place to hide, no place to get a second of rest, no place to slack off, running the risk of stalling or loose traction. Click here for the 2001 story and keep a lookout for the third installment in 2002 which is now in production. One of the club s largest events of the year is the biathlon. The course is nestled in the beautiful valley of Catawba, Virginia.
Participants return year after year because of the challenging, hilly terrain.
