The NMICL 2022 State Championship race is going to be at Oak Flats Picnic Ground outside of Tijeras, NM. Located in the picturesque Manzanita Mountains, the buff mountain single track is punctuated with rocky technical sections made up of chunky limestone and sandstone outcroppings. The course with roughly 4 miles and 400ft of elevation, is well shaded by the abundant Ponderosa Pines, with Pinon, juniper and shrub oaks providing additional floral scenery. While the single track is tight in some areas it is wide enough for passing in other areas and portions of the race course follow old two-track trails where passing is encouraged. The start and finish of the race will be clustered near the team pit zones for optimal encouragement and cheering.
