WEST COAST GRAVL

Unleash your inner Viking!

May 5th, 2024   YACHATS, OREGON

Register for 2024 RESULTS 2023

West Coast Gravel celebrates the explorer in all of us as you make your way to the shores of the Pacific and take on the Siuslaw National Forest's unforgettable backroads for a journey that would make Thor or Freyja proud! 

This second day of cycling after the Oregon Coast Gravel Epic sits only 9 miles from Waldport south on the 101 to the fantastic community of Yachats, Oregon. 

 

The event features the Erik the Red loop with 53 miles, or choose the shorter and less graveled Leif Erikson route with 32 miles and less climbing.

대부분의 지형은 많은 라이더들에게 새로운 곳이며 자전거 타이어를 거의 본 적이 없는 스릴 넘치는 지형을 갖추고 있습니다.

Please note that, like all events at Aid 1 and the course split, you can customize your journey if you have signed up for the Erik the Red loop and ride shorter. 

Relax in Yachats at West Coast Gravel

자주 묻는 질문

Here are answers to some common questions. 

  • 35 MM and, if wet, 38 MM for increased contact area. 

  • The simple answer is yes if you have training time and can handle some sustained climbing. 

  • No! 

  • No refunds exist, outside of the fact that when registering, consider purchasing the Bike Reg protection for injuries and certain conditions not associated with Mudslinger Events or the Oregon Triple Crown. 

  • If your bike is unable to proceed we will pick you up and bring you back to Yachats. 

  • AID DISTANCES 

  • Five Mile signs will be placed on the long course, and added signs before turns on the course! The GPX file is on the online Ride with a GPS map to download to your Garmin or Wahoo device. 

  • Usually, we do start all at once, but due to a landslide that will not be repaired until the summer of 2024, we will self-depart one by one from Yachats between 9 and 9:30 a.m.

  • 10 Barrel Brewing is our primary support for those over 21, and we will also have various other choices for those under 21 or those not partaking in our sponsor's support. 

  • Over the past decade we have operated on the first weekend of May, we have had great weather 75% of the time and only twice was the weather less than favorable. Always bring good rain gear when visiting the Oregon Coast!
