Take county road W26 1 mile north out of Shellsburg to 63rd St. Take 63rd St about 1 mile west and then 31st Ave 1 mile north until you get to 31st Ave & 62nd St Trl. That is about 2 miles on gravel. Look for signs. Expect a fun & challenging course. The live cows will be mooved out before the race.
