Watch the full course preview of the OBRA Criterium Championships! Winding .5 miles through the University of Portland's leafy campus, the 2022 Crit Champs course is short and sparky! A wide hairpin at Corner #2 slows the laps, rewarding deft handling and quick acceleration! Jam out to "Hanging on the telephone" by The Nerves!
The Start/Finish line is on N. Warren St. between N. Van Houten Ave. and N. Portsmouth Ave.
PARKING:
+Normal vehicles: Public parking spots immediately next to the course are few. Good early-bird parking options include N. Warren St. west of N. Montieth Ave. There are also a few choice slots on N. Portsmouth Ave. between Willamette Blvd. as it approaches Corner #1 at N. Warren Street. A safer bet for parking is in N. Harvard St., which runs North and parallel to N. Willamette Blvd.
+Team vehicles and large vans: The University of Portland offers the rear parking lot of the Beauchamp Rec Center. Maybe 6 outsize vehicles, max. Access this lot from N. Willamette Blvd. through N. Van Houten Ave. A corner marshal will usher you through the course when it's clear.
