Three Rivers 300k Reroute

[Daniel Wood]

Heads up that the Three Rivers 300k will need a reroute. The Raccoon River Valley Trail is closed between Redfield and Linden through mid-June for re-surfacing and new bridge approaches.

Thanks Daniel. I will look into alternatives and update the route.

One idea is to just switch the 300k route altogether, e.g. go with the Brushy Racoon 300k instead...

I plan to get over in the area soon to do some route scouting. But if anyone has additional insight, please share.

There's a highway between Redfield and Panora to the SW of the trail that we could reroute on, although it would add a few miles and bring the total to 190.3 miles. Everything else in the area is gravel.

Here's a RWGPS link if you'd like to take a look. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45998256

Here's another reroute that would get back on the trail sooner and put the distance at 189.4 miles.
