DOWNHILL ONLY
This is a downhill only event. Sorry gated riders, as of this time, there won’t be any dual slalom racing at this stop.
AMATEUR RACING
YES, there is amateur racing at the Pro GRT! We are working together with the Fluidride Cup to put on a stellar event from everyone from beginner (Cat 3) to Pro! However, due to the anticipated high numbers of racers for this event, organizers will be capping off the entry to 350 amateur racers. So sign up early!
(The Pro entry is unlimited)
ROAD CLOSURE WARNING!
The Hood Canal Bridge (which is the only access to the Olympic Peninsula from anywhere north of Olympia, Wa.) will be closing at midnight the evening of Thurs the 30th. If you are coming from the north and will be taking the Port Townsend/Keystone ferry this does not affect your route. If you are planning to take the Seattle to Kingston, Bainbridge, Bremerton, or Southworth ferries this will affect your driving plans!
