Race Starts At 10:00a.m.About the Coast Hills Classic
We have an awesome course designed with gorgeous ocean views, meadows, sick downhill, gnarly single track, killer climbs, and what’s sure to be a great course!
This event is brought to life by a public-private partnership in the true spirit of community. Bike Newport, the Newport News-times and other local volunteers are volunteering alongside staff from the Newport Parks and Recreation Department to breath new life into this old race, formerly known as the Ben Eder Memorial. Proceeds from the event goes towards the youth programs scholarship fund at the Newport Recreation Center. Which allows children from economically disadvantaged households the opportunity to participate in a number of fantastic programs.
