Event Overview
The Clarion Summer Outdoor Festival committee invites cyclists 16 years of age and older, who are in good physical condition, to register to compete in an 11.5 mile, point-to-point, time-trial bike race, that will begin at the Farmington Twp. Community Park in Leeper, PA; travel north along the Rail 66 bike trail and finish next to Northwest Hardwoods, which is located about 1 mile south of the village of Marienville, PA. Racers will leave the starting line in 30 second intervals.
Course Description & Map
Rail 66 is a 25 mile asphalt-paved bike trail that begins on Rt. 322 just west of Clarion and ends in the village of Marienville. Although the 11.5 mile time-trial course does not cross any major highways, it does cross 19 township roads, driveways and lanes along this ride, so the race committee will provide traffic control at these intersections to ensure a safe crossing. Post-race refreshments will be provided at the finish line.
