ScoCoPa Frenzy will be presented by FORC (Friends of Off-Road Cycling) at Scott County Park (SCP) on Sunday, May 15. The SCP trail system is a fast flowy system with 12 miles of trail which makes it one of the longest trails in the area.
Participants will use the Buffalo Bill shelter for the venue vs. the normal trail head at Pride Lake to give racers and spectators ample room to spread out, a news release says. Parking will be available at Buffalo Bill parking lot and the large parking lot across from the Pride Lake trail head.
All proceeds from this event benefit FORC and will be used to purchase materials and tools needed to maintain and improve the nine local off-road bike trails in the Quad Cities Area.
