Hi,

I'm new to Adventure Racing but thought that this community might be interested in an event I organized last weekend on July 26th. Basically it was a trail run through Forest Park (7 miles), bike along the Springwater Trail corridor from downtown Portland, through Gresham, Troutdale and back to North Portland along Marine drive (45 miles). The last leg was a kayak trip from Kelley Point Park to Cathedral Park (6 miles).

Gold Rush Adventure Races is proud to present the Gold Rush Mother Lode Expedition Adventure Race. Mother Lode is the only expedition adventure race in the USA west of the Rockies in 2009. Teams will trek, mountain bike, and paddle as the navigate through the scenic lakes, valleys, hills, and mountains of California's Gold Country. Cold and wet weather are a regular occurence at our November events so teams from Oregon and Washington should have some advantage over the local fair weather racers here in California. This event is the culmination of our ten years of experience promoting adventure races at Gold Rush Adventure Races (fromerly Team Karma). For more information go to www.goldrushar.com or send an e-mail to info@goldrushar.com.

I am a 35yr old male. I am in good shape. I bike, hike and strength train on a regular basis. I am easy to get along with and a very fast learner. If there is a local team in Vancouver WA or Portland OR that is looking for an additional teammate, please contact me. Achieveft@yahoo.com. Thanks, Toby

A Coast Mountain Sports Mind Over Mountain Adventure Race is a one day event aimed at challenging the bodies and minds of adventure enthusiasts. Test your limits on a scenic 30 or 50 km of mountain biking, navigation, trail running and kayaking. Both races this year include a 30 km 'sport' course and a 50 km 'enduro' course. Race solo, or in a team of 2 or 4. MOMAR after-parties are legendary, well deserved celebrations after a gruelling race day!
