North Bend State Park will host race #3 of the 2022 season. Found among the Mid-Ohio Valley’s rolling hills, lakes and streams, North Bend State Park offers a multitude of recreational facilities in a beautiful setting. Named for the horseshoe curve of the North Fork of the Hughes River, this year-round park is lush with hiking trails and abundant wildlife. Located near Cairo and Harrisville, North Bend State Park is best known for the 72-mile North Bend Rail Trail, which follows a railbanked B&O Railroad corridor with several tunnels along the way. This is a course that offers something for everyone! Tough climbs, flowy open singletrack, grassy meadows, and true West Virginia woods. It’s also great for spectating, so be sure to bring your binoculars!
