I assumed it would be at the OB parking lot but looking at the map it doesn't seem to be.

Parkgate Park.

If you zoom in on the Trailforks map you can see the parking lot that we stage from.

From race 1 info:

As you can see from the map we're on Seymour and staging will be taking place at Parkgate Park. We have used this location twice in 2014 and it's proven to be a great spot. There is limited parking in the area, please carpool if you can, ride from home, or park dispersed around the neighbourhood.

Parking at Old Buck and just riding back over to Parkgate works also.

Lots of riders don't realize there is a massive park just a couple seconds from there usual mtb paradise.
