Olympic Bike Course - 40 kilometers (24.8 miles)

Athletes familiar with the Black Diamond Long Course Bike Course will recognize this as identical to the northern course from the last few years.
You'll travel north out of the park along Veazie-Cumberland and travel some beautiful rural roads, and eventually right toward Selleck on Kanaskat-Kangley Road. After a turn-around in Ravensdale on Kent-Kangley road, you'll make your way to your aid station at Mile 15. There will be water, gatorade, and powergels. Volunteers will guide you at every turn, so don't worry through those longer straight stretches. In Cumberland, you'll be directed to a 2.5 mile out-and-back on SE 352nd St. and then return to Nolte for the run. Find the Route on RideWithGPS Here

The Olympic run course heads right into the woods at transition toward the parking lot. From there you'll weave around a bit to get to the southbound side of Veazie-Cumberland and head toward 384th St. There's you'll find an aid station and your turnaround. Long Course athletes continue straight - don't follow them! When you return to the park, you'll do 2 loops around the lake to finish on a hard-packed gravel trail. No trail shoes necessary, just watch your step.
