who is all heading to the race this saturday?, they say the course will be marked out by 1400 hours on friday.
Race 1 DH Course- The course has been selected for race #1. It looks to be a true DH test with some railing trails that have never been used before for any cycling event. The opening is high speed, with some roller coaster like sections, where riders can really get some serious speed. There are a few blind turns where gravity will be felt as racers swoop off of hills and drops at high speeds. Then the course dips into some super tight single track trails that highlights braking and turning ability of rider and bike. Be sure and watch your speed here as it is steep and tight and there is a high possibility of over shooting some tight turns. This route looks to have perfect traction in the dirt with the past few rains, and if the weather holds up, this could be one of the sweetest DH courses around! Like in all CCCX DH races, there will be some pedaling near the end that will check your fitness and form.
Please remember to respect other Toro Park users and be thankful to the Toro Park Rangers for allowing the DH races to take place!
There is a 30 minute hike to get to the start area. Please follow direction signs to parking for the CCCX DH Event.
You're not a bad@ss unless they're xc tubes.oh and brianrocks....i am running tubes only....hah
Awesome. I need to get some money so I can put my stupid bike together... Care to donate a payment on an SWD frame?By far the best cccx dh race ever. SO good. Technical, fast, etc.
The bottom section had some pedaling but it was a nice sprint/technical part right before the finish. Cant wait for the next one. =]
I was talking to bdamschen about that, I decided that next time we need to do the 'bacon hickory cheddar burger and beer and brats' thing again.the only thing missing was a BBQ.
