Course Details

The Run Course is a loop in the city limits of Palouse. It involves pavement, gravel roads, running trail and grass. The bike course ventures along gravel roads following the palouse river crossing into idaho before it loops back into the state of washington and the city of Palouse. The bicycle course has some challenging hill climbs, and is primarily gravel roads. (NO Road Bikes)

Bike Restriction

There is no official limitation on bikes, but we do not want people showing up with carbon bikes with slick tires expecting pavement... Our winner from 2011 flew through the course on a single speed cyclocross bike. So use your best judgment in bringing appropriate equipment.
