What's the course like??? Anyone ever ridden there??? Sand, hardpack, dg, mud, powder, rocks, paved (incase you want to run slicks..) Is it worth it?

Rumor has it that there are 2 courses, everyone does 1 run on each course. Runs are very short, 1:30-2:00 range, so more like 2:00 for you Lor. Not sure of the type of dirt, but I think they just got some snow up there today.

A very brief race report, since it was a very brief course. Pro's were doing times under 1 minute! The course was fun, just needed to be at least twice as long, nonetheless, it was fun. I love the two run format, it's the way Big Bear used to run their DH. It's all about consistency, and with this short of a course, you couldn't afford to make a single mistake. Some high speed berms, off chamber with very small drops/roll downs, a rock garden that consisted of 5, maybe 6, rocks, and a really fun whoop section. No pic's here, but I saw Winston taking pic's all day.

And yes, I got another 2nd, didn't feel like I was much of a threat to the winner, he was definitely ripping it up, my bro Joe finished 4th, and I know Ross was on the podium as well, don't remember what place, but I know we'll be hearing from him!
