More details

Getting to the start

Augusta Transit (Augusta, GA) — limited weekday fixed-route bus service; no confirmed route/stop directly serving Mill Village Trailhead

Venue is Mill Village Trailhead, 109 Eve St, Augusta, GA 30904, in the historic Harrisburg mill-village neighborhood near the Augusta Canal. Augusta Transit runs local routes Mon-Fri 8am-5pm (plus first Saturday of month), but race-day (Saturday) fixed-route coverage is limited/unconfirmed for this address — best treated as car/rideshare access, with weekday transit only as a fallback.

Prior edition (43) archived at Oct 25, 2025 (Saturday); 2026-10-24 (also a Saturday) is consistent with the annual late-October pattern — no real conflict, just normal year-to-year date drift.
