About this race
Race Overview
Come over to the "wild side' of the Northeast Kingdom and race in this singletrack packed revival of the old CircumBurke epic. Last year, CircumVictory attracted 160 cyclists and runners to Victory Hill's legendary trails to brave this gritty mountain trail challenge together. Participants included some of the most dedicated local trail athletes from Vermont and New England including an Olympic mountain biking medalist and a Tour De France professional. All entry fees and sponsorships are reinvested into trail maintenance by the Victory Hill Trail Club, a non-profit trail organization.
