Evergreen East, the Inland Northwest’s mountain biking advocacy organization, is putting on its first-ever race October 15, and it’s an eduro race at Beacon Hill/Camp Sekani. The date was picked to line up with some of the best riding conditions of the season. Racers will start at Camp Sekani and cover four stages over a total of about 13 miles before ending up at the towers at Beacon Hill. Each stage consists of varying terrain, flowing singletrack, mildly technical terrain, easily do-able jumps, and about 3,000 feet of climbing. The stages of the race will be revealed a few days before October 15, so be on the lookout for details on Evergreen’s website and Facebook page. Registration is $45 for Evergreen East members and $55 for non-members. Funds from the race will help support Evergreen East in its trail building and maintenance efforts.
