Free parking is available near the Boys & Girls Club. There is also street parking available.

We have a Rider Support Crew that patrols continually along both routes. These volunteers provide mechanical road support for such issues as flat tires or simple repairs. If the mechanical problem is too great, they will provide transportation back to Registration. If on the ODT (trail) we will call for an auto to meet as close as possible for transportation back to Registration. All Volunteers are cell phone equipped for serious medical issues that require a 911 call.

There are several lodging options available. We recommend you check out the Olympic Peninsula Visitor's Bureau website: https://olympicpeninsula.bookdirect.net/#/lodgings?campaign=OlyPen-bookingwidget&group_ids%5B%5D=63019&checkin=20260618&checkout=20260619&locale=en
