Yo EC nice work man... Im super bummed my folks sold their property in Rainbow now. haha You are one of the few BIG TIME pros I've been fortunate to know that really love the sport for what it is, and also it's potential. Keep it up.

Looks awesome man, keep us posted! I'm eager to see a few more pictures!

The rains finally came. Should be enough to get the needed work done on the new trails. You think???

Looks like this thread hasn't been updated in a while. Much trail work has been going on over the past month getting ready for this weekends DH/SD/XC race at Vail Lake!!!

I am in Northern California so this would be a lot further than Northstar but I like riding different terrain so I would likely make at least one trip down a year if it was good riding

 

[cheetaprowlerDH]

alright, thats it.
my financial flow, as nearly nonexistent as it may be, is being diverted back to my bike
i've got enough camera shtuff, now i need to be obsessed once again with bike stuff!

i might come out this weekend to shoot the race, then i can see how sick the place is!

 

[al7barfly]

Obviously there is a race this weekend, but when will it be open with shuttle service outside of races?

 

[Slater]

So is this open to the public yet? Not necessarily even with shuttle service but can you go and hike and ride it yet? Would love to hit it this weekend if its the case.

 

[PatBranch]

Not quite. They just had a race, but I think they are going to do a lot more work on trails before they open it.

 

[The Breaker Man]

Bummer, I wanted to check it out this weekend. Are you sure its closed? Anybody been out there hiking up it or is it completely off limits?

 

[BC VAN]

im not sure what the status is of the trails and if it's open to ride ......

i know that there is no shuttle service for sure....they have been charging riders $5 to enter the property to ride the trails....

keep in mind there is a 12 hr xc race on the property this weekend as well and the dh trail we raced on might interfere with the course they are using? im not sure as i don't know the actual route of the course....

as far as the opening...still waiting on weather.

 

[hofferfish]

Are there going to be any public trail days? I'd love to come help you guys dig

 

[al7barfly]

Are there any new updates on the bike park?

 

[stgil888]

Any updates?

 

[-BB-]

well put, I definitely agree. If EC says it's going to happen, seems it usually happens.

 

[BC VAN]

I should have posted something up here, I did in our local So Cal forum a while back.

Sorry to say but I am no longer connected with Vail Lake Resort in regards to the bike park.

Vail still has a lot of potential but there were some situations that had me take a hard look at the time investment and the reality of the Gravity portion of the park actually opening for business.

I know Jason who holds his 12 hr xc series of events is still involved out there.

I would say if you have any questions call the resort (866) 824-5525

 

[bullcrew]

There is a individual working hard right now trying to bring DH racing back to Socal .....

Wont be lift or resort unfortunently but definently has potential...

what's the name of the local forum?
