General Info
Why race?
This year the Series will include two courses that will be set once and left the same for the entire series. The reason: you are racing your own time each week. Sure, we will have some fun podiums for the winners each week but a weekly series is ideally used for improvement and we think having the ability to race your time from the previous week and measure your own improvement is an important part of the training process.
Course Information

Youth Course Notes
Designed for young beginners to enter MTB racing in a fun and relaxed environment with very easy terrain, no large hill climbs, minimal features.
Sport/Expert Course Notes
One race course designed for the beginner or the more experienced athlete. This course will include A & B lines so that beginners can avoid the technical features as they progress but the expert and elite athlete can train on more difficult features during the weekly race. Choose your path - the A lines save time but require more skill. The technical features will include jumps, downhill and uphill rock gardens, steep climbs, step ups, drop offs, and gaps.
