RACE DESCRIPTION
Located roughly 20 miles south of Coos Bay, the region’s first single-track trail system is open year-round to mountain bikers, but for this race it will be reserved for those of us who shred at running pace.
We’ll start and finish at the main Whiskey Run Trailhead.
Our chosen section of Whiskey Run is shaded and sheltered, which means these trails are rolling, smooth, and oh so loamy.
Course options include the following. Note that projected distances and actual distances may vary, kinda like the amount of whiskey consumption you report to your doctor! Note that the course has changed in 2025 since some of the trails are closed due to logging.
1.5 Mile (Shirley Temple)
A shorter loop, but still challenging. Great for walkers and adventurous families wishing to wet their whistles!
5 Mile (Whiskey Ginger)
A full loop on super-premium top-shelf trails, cheers!
10 Mile (Double Shot – two loops of Whiskey Ginger)
If one just isn’t enough, imbibe 2 full loops – stay thirsty, my friends!
Please note that all courses are 100% trail, so not stroller friendly. These are single-track trails and a dog can take you out. We love dogs, but please leave your dog at home!
Why
Because singletrack is awesome! Also, this race supports Wild Rivers Coast Mountain Bike Association.
