“We’ll have a little bit past the halfway mark an aid station with water and infinite sports<br />
drinks and then (athletic fuel) food like waffles and gels and stuff that’ll keep them going,”<br />
Jordan said. “Everything’s included in the price of entry. All the racers will get a T-shirt; the<br />
top three in each age group will get a really cool glass that’s shaped like a can. And then<br />
we’ve got some other cool prizes for the top racers. So, everybody should be pretty happy<br />
when they leave here. We’re trying to raise money for the trail, but we’re also trying to make<br />
sure everybody’s got their money’s worth, too.”<br />
Jordan said the date will be an emotional day for him, as well, as it will have been exactly<br />
two years to the day that his dad, Andy, passed away.<br />
“This’ll be a good way to tip my hat to him because he taught me a lot,” Jordan said, “and<br />
he was always very active in the bike community, and I try to do the same thing and make<br />
him proud, and I think this’ll be a perfect way to do it.”<br />
To get to FATS from North Augusta, head north on Martintown Road to Sportsmans<br />
Corner, and make a left on Woodlawn Road — it will be down that road on the left. From<br />
West Augusta, go north on Highway 28 and take a right on Hopewell Church Road.<br />
