Overview

This is a 100 mile relay race near Seattle. The first section is Mountain Bike or Cyclecross. You start 100 miles east of Seattle and a team of five or Ironman race to the finish. The sections are, Mtn Bike, Road Bike, Kayak, Half Marathon, 10k.

The mountain bike section is down a well maintained trail, that used to be railroad track. If you have a cyclecross, use it. It is slightly downhill the entire way, so you want high PSI in those tires and lock out your suspension if you have any. No technical skills required, you just need to haul ass for 23 miles, and drafting is legal. You also get to enjoy going through a tunnel that is pitch back (light required) for two whole miles. Very fun race!
