Places to Skate Near Maryhill

GravityRider15 · 08-08-2008, 10:32 PM

I'll be racing at maryhill, but was wondering if there are any spots to skate somewhat nearby in Oregon. I will be leaving the 21st, and will be on the coast of Oregon, and would like to hit up some hills or whatever, and hopefully keep it easy and not get hurt for the race.

So if any one can tell me of some spots or whatever that'd be great.

Thanks

Chris

Going to the coast from Maryhill you pass Rowena point and over closer to the beach there is Newburg skatepark.

Rowena is an open road and this will be a holiday weekend. Cops in the past have stopped and hassled skaters there before (see the timeship video of the 2005(6) race for the chase). Be stealthy, stay in your lane and do not stay too long. The mosier tunnels are close to Rowena. This is a bike path with 3 decent hills and is alot of fun. If you are going to Rowena, check out mosier too.

Yup. Be smart, dont blow it for the locals.

And so you know, Alpental CAN NOT be skated on weekends, only weekdays.

Didn't get out to any spots near maryhill. I was in the Tillamook area of Oregon, and found enough out there, which was fun.
