What Is Poca Go!?

Poca Go! is an enduro-style cross-country mountain bike stage race held on the Swift Creek single-track flow trails at Pocahontas State Park in Chesterfield, VA. A racer is solo on each timed stage, not side-by-side with another racer. Each person is buffered by 30 seconds, so it’s just you, the trail, and the clock.

Poca Go! is well-supported with course marshals, medics on-site, hydration stations, bike maintenance stations, bathrooms, plus awards for the top finishers in each category.

Poca Go! is a 503c registered not-for-profit organization. The race is a fundraiser event staffed fully by volunteers from the local trail community, and all proceeds from the race will support the mountain bike trails at Pocahontas State Park.

Poca Go! is a part of the Virginia State Parks Adventure Series.

Refunds:

No refunds will be given for this race under any circumstances. We will do everything in our power to make this race a reality. If unforeseen circumstances arise and we aren’t able to hold the event, all race fees will automatically be considered as donations to the trails.

It's tough.

Poca Go! is designed to give you a challenge. We recognize you signed up to race, not a leisure ride.

It's rewarding.

This race is a fundraiser. Plain and simple, your entry is helping keep the race and the bike trails at Pocahontas State Park alive!
