The organizer confirms Huffmaster Grasshopper for Sunday, February 28, 2027. Its current long course covers 90 miles and 4,866 feet over a 54-percent paved and 46-percent dirt mix, combining wind exposure, gravel climbs, and a fast dirt descent.

This twelve-week Masters plan spaces hard days for absorption, adds recovery, and preserves enough durability and group efficiency, rolling restraint, and loose-surface descending to stay composed through 90 mixed-surface miles, wind exposure, gravel climbs, and a fast dirt descent. Long rides prove the complete pacing, fueling, tire, repair, and clothing system without sacrificing freshness.
