Cannibal
|
Cannibal: a person who route that eats the flesh of other human beings. (Or maybe … a mountain top along the way.)
This route showcases the raw beauty of the ancient Siuslaw National Forest and some of its seriously stout hills. It is a take-off of the Oregon Coast Gravel Epic (Abomination route), but instead of the start / finish in Waldport the start / finish is in Yachats.
If you are looking for a shorter route, in the same general area, check out Burnt Timber.
The Dirty Freehub Team has not ridden this route, thus the Training Route designation.
