Sco Co Pa Frenzie – Short Track Dirt Criterium – Saturday, July 18, 2009
Sco Co Pa Chase – Cross Country Race – Sunday, July 19, 2009

Friends of Off-Road Cycling has been working tirelessly to create a new mountain biking venue for y’all to experience first hand. Introducing… SCO CO PA! With the cooperation of Scott County (Iowa) government officials and their park division, FORC was graciously allowed access to the beautiful Scott County Park in Parkview, IA in 2008 with authorization to build mountain biking trails for all to enjoy. We have been working hard out there and hope you like what you see. Be the first to race these new trails!

Not only will you enjoy the fast nature of the trails at Sco Co Pa, but we’ve sweetened the deal. Not only will we be hosting a cross country race which is part of the I-74 Homegrown Series, but add to the mix a short track criterium-style race. All this fun can be experienced by YOU during the weekend of July 18th and 19th, 2009. The short track "Sco Co Pa Frenzie" will be held on Saturday, July 18, 2009 with the first races beginning at 10:00 AM. The cross country race, the "Sco Co Pa Chase" will be held on Sunday, July 19, 2009 with the Novice race beginning at 10:00 AM.

Scott County Park is also home to a variety of other amenities such as a golf course, multiple picnic shelters with tables, grills and/or fireplaces, five unique camping areas throughout the park with modern restrooms and showers, several cabins available for rent, a recently renovated Olympic-size heated swimming pool and aquatic center, a baseball field, several playgrounds, a radio-controlled airplane site, and hike-only and equestrian-only nature trails. Winter activities at Scott County Park include cross-country skiing and snow shoeing.

Scott County Park is located nine miles North of Davenport, Iowa. Use exit #129 from U.S. Highway 61. The entrance to the park is located on 270th Street.
