'05 World Cup in Angel Fire?
- Thread starter ÃX
- Start date
Angel Fire bid on it for '04, but was not awarded a World Cup due to lack of infrastructure, I believe. Rumours I've been hearing involve Angel Fire making a bid for an NMBS for '05 or beyond.
I copied this off of the Velonews website:
The official schedule has yet to be released, but several trade team sources told VeloNews that next year's slate will likely include stops in Canada (probably Mont-Ste-Anne); the U.S. (Angel Fire, New Mexico); Germany (in conjunction with the BIKE-Festival at Willingen); Fort William, Scotland (probable site for the series finale); Houffalize, Belgium (cross-country only); Schladming, Austria (gravity only); and Madrid (cross-country only).

that would be awesome, AngelFire is an amazing place. That would be the perfect vacation go down for the Worlds and then after that hit up some runs. 
I'de love it if they ran it in Angelfire...UCI Elite license here I come
Angelfire has quite possibly the best dh and mx courses in the country, it would be a good event for sureneversummersnow said:

I truly hope they get it,... but again, i'm not holding my breath. who knows what '05 will bring! hopefully something cool.....& something close to home....like near San Diego....& preferably next to the beach!
