Race Overview

Race Meeting Friday, July 25th 1:00 PM [At Co-Motion Cycles] We strongly encourage all racers to attend this non-mandatory pre-race meeting during which we'll discuss rules, road conditions and answer any questions you may have.

Kent Peterson Time Trial Saturday, July 26th, at 9:00AM All categories This 12K out-and-back TT is relatively flat and windswept, with a small downhill at the start, and a small uphill at the halfway point. It will be fast and smooth, so discs and light wheels will be AOK.

Tandem Time Trial

Co-Motion Criterium Saturday, July 26th at 1:00PM This 1K wide open safe course is a great venue for tandem racing, and after the tandems are done, it will play host to single races as well. So, plan to stick around and enjoy the show.

Wolf Creek Road Race Sunday, July 27th. "A" Category: 10:30AM, "B" Category: 10:00AM, "C" Category: 10:15AM
One of the legendary road-racing courses of Oregon, versions of which have been used for the Tour of Willamette as well as the Burley Tandem Classic. Epic climbs and challenging descents full of winding curves. The climbs aren't exceptionally steep, but we recommend a low gear in the 40" range. For example, a 42T chainring with a 28T cog =40.5". If you're uncertain of your abilities, we recommend lower gears. Most tandems equipped with a triple chainring will have perfectly adequate gearing. Ths is a one lap course starting and ending at King Estate Winery A's: 56 miles. B's: 41.5 miles C's: 26 miles
