Saturday, May 11th, 2024

Dialed Performance Coaching is excited to present the Barton Park Road Race. Last on the OBRA calendar back in 2018, this 7 mile circuit on the roads of Clackamas County around Barton Park features the fearsome ‘Eaden Wall’ climb.

Racers will stage at Barton Park and after a short neutral rollout, will complete between 3 and 10 laps of the circuit before finishing 500 Meters from the top of the climb.

HELP!

We need volunteers to make this Happen! Please consider donating some of your time to help out. We are looking for lead /follow vehicle drivers, as well as corner marshals. Receive a free race entry for you or someone you know.

The Course

Riders will stage at Barton Park. There will be a neutral start down the hill and across the bridge on S Baker’s Ferry Rd. After turning left onto S Eaden Rd, racing will begin. The first few miles along S Eaden road are gently rolling, but things turn spicy after the road bends left onto S Eaden Rd Hill. “The Wall”. This 0.3 mile climb rises 150’ at an average of 10%. Bring your best 2 minute power and try to stay with the group over the top. You pass the finish line on each lap just past the top of the hill before some rollers and a long downhill run down S Harding Rd.

After finishing your race, the fastest way back to the park is to ride the course back in the opposite direction down Eaden Rd Hill.
