Welcome to the 5th Annual CTC Tri Camp!

Its hard to believe weve been doing this for five years.

We are continuing to improve the experience and build a

training & learning weekend for all levels of triathletes

to benefit from. The Mohican area offers a great

opportunity for challenging runs and rides and the

scenery is spectacular.

As in the past, weve reserved premium house style

cabins for the weekend. This year, due to more demand,

weve added additional cabins to accommodate all

interested. Were planning the big Friday rides again for

those who can get the day off work and come down

early. Some key information for this year:

All meals and snacks are provided

Since our participation has increased, we are catering dinners on Friday and Saturday.

Although we have 2 training tracks athletes can jump between training options if they choose.

After checking in at the Mohican Adventures entrance you will be guided to the Century

House for cabin and bed assignments.

The night run course will be marked with glow-sticks to get everyone through safely & there will be

an optional pavement run for those that forgot their

headlamp.


Getting there

Mohican Adventures is located just south of Loudonville on

State Route three (north of the State Park entrance). The

cabins are on the west side of the road (see map below). When

you arrive, check in at the gatehouse

cabin passes.

From the Cleveland area,

Loudonville. The most straight

to Exit 173 (Mansfield / Lucas exit) to St. Rt. 39. Go East to

Loudonville, approximately 18 miles. In town, take St. Rt. 3

South about 1.5 miles to Mohican Adventures.

67 miles

2,500 feet of climbing

The first 20 miles of this ride are a challenging and hilly ride

through awesome countryside and woodland areas. The next

twenty are a bit flatter with varied terrain and a few tough but

short climbs. Miles 40-45 you can really open it up on mostly flat

open roads. The last twenty will keep you working with climbs

on tired legs. The directions are easier that it looks!

Friday B Ride

32 miles


The first 20 miles of this ride are the same as the route as the big ride.

Although only 32 miles, the ride involves a lot of climbing and is a

challenging ride for any level of cyclist. The ride travels through the heart

of Mohican as is a fantastic way to start a big weekend of workouts.

Friday Night RunFriday Night RunFriday Night RunFriday Night Run

The trail run through the Mohican mountain bike trails has been a hit since

the camp started. We strap on headlamps and keep the pace slow. Lots of

climbing and descending. Its a very social run. Its only a 5.5 miler, but

takes a good amount of time to get through the woods. If you arent

confident going off-road, you can run on the paved running path nearby or

hangout at the campfire.

Saturday Saturday Saturday Saturday BigBigBigBig Ride Ride Ride Ride

This ride will test your mettle. We will ride out to Pleasant Hill Lake, then

follow HFP Racings new Olympic Course for 25 miles (course below), then

ride back. Plan on a 40 to 45 total miles. If you rode Friday, this ride may

very well bring you to your knees! If not, it will be a real quad burner none-

the-less! Visit HFPs web-site for more information on their up-coming race

this June:

Saturday Ride through Mohican (newbiesSaturday Ride through Mohican (newbiesSaturday Ride through Mohican (newbiesSaturday Ride through Mohican (newbies))))

26 miles


You will be treated to a spectacular ride through the Mohican State Park.

You are highly recommended to take in a bit of the scenery as you suffer

through over 2,000 feet of climbing. Its tough, but youll be rewarded with

an awesome dinner to get your mojo back later that evening!

27 miles

900 feet of climbing

The loop starts out with 11 miles flats down Wally Road along the river.

Some challenging climbs come into play for the next 7 miles. In the middle

of that stretch is an area where stronger riders can really have some fun on

some quick rollers and hammer it out at a fast pace then are rewarded

with a steep tough short climb into the Nashville square. The rest of the

ride will wear you down a bit with climb after climb (and prevailing winds

in your face).

Important note: A small portion (about 1 mile) of the ride is on un-paved

roads. Its a little bumpy, but youll have no problem as its tight packed dirt

and relatively smooth. Just take it a bit slower and you (and your bike) will

be fine. Last year, conditions were not good. We will preview the course

before camp this year and change the course if necessary.

This route is simple. Turn Left out of the campground, just past

Mohican Adventures turn right on Wally Road. Take Wally 11-

miles to the end. Turn left on SR 514 and travel 7 miles to

Nashville. Turn Left on SR 60 and head to Loudonville. In

downtown Loudonville, turn left on SR 3 and head back to camp.


SSSSundayundayundayunday In the Flats Riding In the Flats Riding In the Flats Riding In the Flats Riding (Newbie & Veteran):

32 miles

Pace line practice, steady state riding

This ride takes the paved portion of Wally Road out to the end of

the asphalt, turn around and do 2x back-and-forth for a total of

about 32 miles. You can cut out at 16 miles if you need a rest or

want to get a longer run in afterwards. Well practice some

triathlon specific pace lines. For the newbies this is a perfect

way to practice cycling skills before the big Sunday ride. For the

veterans, this isnt a leisure ride, but it isnt a quad-burner either

and we like to put our speed muscles on and see just how fast

we can fly!
