PORT ANGELES — The Northwest Cup is back at Dry Hill this weekend.
The downhill mountain bike races are the opening round of the national series and the second round of the Northwest Cup Downhill Mountain Bike Race Series at the Dry Hill trail network.
This also is the opener for the USA Cycling Pro Gravity Tour, which includes some of the fastest professional racers in the country and world.
Spectators are welcome to attend, but parking is limited, so patience and carpooling are encouraged, Northwest Cup co-director Scott Tucker said.
The event runs today through Sunday, but today and Saturday are mainly practice days. The majority of timed runs will occur Sunday.
Sunday’s racing begins at
9 a.m. and runs until approximately 1 p.m.
Dry Hill is 3 miles west of the now-closed Haggen’s grocery store on U.S. Highway 101.
Every vehicle attending the races must display a Washington State Discover Pass.
