Race Summary
Cap your weekend with a race on a classic course in the beautiful Willamette Valley. Starting and finishing just outside of Eugene, Oregon this is a multi-lap loop with a little bit of everything. The race will start at Crow High school with a 3-mile neutral rollout that will get the legs warmed up and everybody ready to go. The fun follows on a 13.5-mile loop with some small rollers, flat sections, and a short hill that feels much steeper than it is as it comes just after a 1-mile section of gravel.
The course awards attacking and is great for a wide variety of racers and race strategies. After completing the prescribed loops, racers will head back to Crow high school for the finish. Of course, there is still one more bump to conquer. Will it be enough to get away and will any escapees get caught before the fast-finishing straightaway?
