You know what that means, right?

Crankworx Colorado - Winter Park, Colorado
- Thread starter Eastern States Cup
- Start date
There will be lots of lesbians with golden retrievers watching the race?
Subarus, granola, birkenstocks, and retrievers Oh my!
Nope, Class 1 designation does not come easily and usually (not always) precedes a World Cup a year later.
and prob the above stuff as well.

It's in the works. I know they were starting to cut a new race course at the end of last year. I was impressed when I went in September. Not only by the current trails, but by the vision and commitment the staff has for MTB in general.hopefully it precedes a real DH course too
Could it possibly be two world cups on US soil in one year? I cant remember if Windham was a three year deal or two year. Thoughts contracts don't really mean much but still. That would be SWEET!!!
I might have to choose between going to Crankworks Colorado or later hitting up the Gravity Nationals in NC. Not sure I can afford to do both.
Which would be more worth it?
Are they going to have Nationals at NC for two years in a row?

That would depend on what level you race at and what your goals were.
Memmelaar for the win.July 30-31 Crankworx Colorado - Winter Park, Colorado is a UCI Class 1 Race in 2011.

Depends on whether you want to use your cruise control for 9 hours...or 29 hours.
You can make a trip out of colorado. Keystone is like a hour or hour and a half from winter park. Keystone is LOTS of fun.
Sol Vista is like 20min from WP, too. A must-do.
And if you want to jump on the all-mtn, trail riding bandwagon, there's a ****ton of that around WP, too. In fact, WP is the self proclaimed "Mountain Bike Capital USA".

Ummm....WP isn't having a UCI WC race (like Vail has in the past). They are just having a race that allows you to obtain points in order to race a UCI sanctioned WC race. Kinda a big difference. I won't hold my breath on "what usually comes after..."
If Winter Park ever holds a UCI World Cup race, I will actually buy a summer season pass. Just to show my support. But it will still be the Warrior Princess
