Skibowl race season

Uruk-hai · Apr 4, 2006

They all should be at Skibowl. Last year's first race was held on the lower half only and everybody did 2 runs. But with the snow level that the PNW has received this year I wouldn't be surprised if that first race was canceled.

Ok so since skibowl still has about 100" of snow, and the first race is on May 6th where exactly is the racing going to take place?

I noticed on their schedule it says "DH race on Mt. Hood" whereas all the other races it says "DH race on Mt. Hood Skibowl"...so if its not skibowl where is it?

Just curious thanks

If the May 5th race happens it should be the Glad Trail....kinda like a super d, or gravity xc.

I know Petr updates his voice mail way more often than the web site, so you might wanna call that.

Ahh good call. I got the info line ((503) 272 - 0146)...says the race is going to be held on the Pioneer Bridal Trail "at the highest point".

Yep...aka the Pioneer Bridal Trial. If you plan on doing the race, bring your trail bike. I have only been about 1 mile down it (do to someone in our riding party crashing an breaking their leg :rolleyes:

) but from what I hear it's mainly XC going downhill.

naw, just slap a sid carbon on the front and you'll be good to go.

It is just a trail ride. It's pretty cool but 5" of travel is more than enough for most of it.

Everyone should keep in mind that at the bridal trail you also have to ride about 1.5 miles to the start and it has some small hills. From what I recall you could kill it on a hardtail on that course. I will prolly ride my tazer. With how much snow they have, even the second race may not have upper bowl (there have been several years like that)

Kevin and I will both be there, both of on our trail bikes.

Yes, yes it was. I think that was the around the time you and I broke our ankles also. I would tell you to bring your new rig down for the race, but the Mt. Hood area has not been kind to you :mad:
