Each year the race season in North America kicks off at the world renown tracks of Dry Hill, Port Angeles. Racers from all over the country and even Canada swarm to what has now become one of the worlds most popular races. Not only are the tracks top notch, but the entire event is run to precision. This is due to the hard work and dedication put forth by event organizers Scott Tucker and Casey Northern. The two have rallied together to provide a experience that racers of all levels can enjoy. Category specific tracks tuned to perfection, ample practice time, coffee stands and catered food services, and all around good vibes keep this race scene growing year after year. It is this very series that has provided a start for many up and coming athletes such as Trevor Parson, Victor Smith, Evan Geankoplis and Matt Orlando of Team Freehub. And also serving as a relaxing escape from the rigors of World Cup racing for the likes of Luke Strobel and Bryn Atkinson. When an event draws athletes from each end of the sport you know your doing something right. Cheers to Scott and Casey for continually elevating their brand of racing.

Special thanks to the NW Cup for hosting the most badass race series in existence.
