Coast Oregon Rides is excited to announce<br />

trails on the Oregon Coast. Highlighting the<br />

hard work of the active bike clubs and trail<br />

<strong>OC</strong> <strong>WAVES</strong> • VOL <strong>3.9</strong><br />

builders in the area, who have been creating<br />

coastal mountain biking experiences. This year,<br />

Ride the Dirt Wave will be featuring three trail<br />

systems on the Oregon Coast, each with its<br />

unique set of trails for all levels of riders.<br />

Ride the Dirt Wave offers two days of riding in<br />

each location. Day one has several ride options<br />

open to many levels of riders. These rides will<br />

be led by the local bike clubs and trail groups<br />

that built and maintained the trails. These will<br />

be “fun rides” to showcase the favorite trails in<br />

the area and be open to a broad range of people.<br />

There will be food, beverages, music, and<br />

information on the trails, clubs, and local area.<br />

Day two is race day! The Flow Duro Challenge<br />

Race is a fun, fast-paced, timed competition<br />

down a short, flowy, mostly downhill trail. It<br />

combines all of our favorite elements of friendly<br />

competition down sweeping trails with a small<br />

amount of climbing and a large amount of fun!<br />

Each race takes place at a different location<br />

on the Oregon Coast, with different terrain,<br />

difficulty, length, elevation, and times. There<br />

will be two timed runs down the course, and<br />

the fastest time will be kept. You are encouraged<br />

to attend all three races to be in contention for<br />

the “Champion of the Dirt Wave Series!”<br />

JUNE 3-4 2023<br />

The adventure begins on the North Coast,<br />

just outside of Cannon Beach and Seaside,<br />

off HWY 26. Klootchy Creek Trails offer trails<br />

for all levels of riders, from flowy and fast jump<br />

lines on advanced blue and black diamond trails<br />

to family-friendly and beginner short and sweet<br />

trails, perfect for new riders and little shredders<br />

to the session!<br />
