Deer Valley is rough. Almost brutal.

By the time there have been 3000 runs down the course, I think we may or may be approaching Schweitzer levels. Well, close anyway.

I agree. I'm sitting in the RV Resort and the course is brutal. Already have a bent brake lever, any chance you guys have a Hope lever down there? And how far is Go-Ride from SLC?

From DV it's sooo easy to go to go-ride!!
Go to I-80 west bound from Deer VAlley. As soon as you get in SLC, llok for the signs, take the 700 E exit south bound to 33rd S, go west bound to 400E....
Probably 30-35' depending on your driving.

Anyway, the course rocks!!!

Yeah i agree....100x rougher than what most of us from SoCal have been riding. I managed to flat a rear today. From what I heard several people took trips to the Hospital already.

Any other monkey on here racing DS?

Gosh...I am so hating being on my ass today!!! I loved that course the rougher it got because everybody else was backing off as the roots and stumps got taller and the rubble got deeper and looser...the braking bumps got massive.

I remember the last day that pros were only doing 2 runs per day b/c the course was changing SO DRASTICLY after each run that it was a new course every run....."kicking self in skull" :cool:

It sucks I couldn't make it out there; it sounds like I'm missing a fun course. If anyone has any pictures, I would love to see the course. I'm looking forward to Brian's Head, though.
