Ironman Chattanooga To Bring 2,400+ Bicyclists To Walker County On Sept. 28

  • Thursday, August 28, 2014

The bicycle portion of Ironman Chattanooga will bring 2,400+ bicyclists to Walker County on Sunday, Sept. 28.  The route will include the Flintstone, Chickamauga, and Cove areas of the community including Highways 193 and 341. 

The event will be open course, meaning that roadways will not be closed for the route; portions of downtown Chickamauga will be closed and used for spectator viewing and related events.  Law enforcement and Ironman volunteers will be at intersections, however delays are expected.

Two public community meetings are scheduled and will include representatives from Ironman, local law enforcement, and community leaders.  Attendees will be given more information on the event and will have the opportunity to ask questions.  Community meetings will take place beginning at 7 p.m. on Sept. 2 at the Mountain Cove Farms Show Barn and on Sept. 9 at the Chickamauga Civic Center.
