Event Description
This course is the definition of XCO, with fast hardpack single and doubletrack flowiness(Glue Factory, Baby Jesus), a small amount of fireroad, then throw in some great climbing(Escalator), and of course the fast, winding downhill(Bear Trail), and folks we have a very fast, exciting race circuit.
Beginners will do two half-laps, Intermediates race two full laps, and Experts will blaze through three full laps! Full lap distance is 6km, with the Beginner loop being approximately 3km.
Please note this event was previously scheduled for May 9th, 2010.

Everti cycling club has taken over the organizing of this race and asked to switch to the 16th of May. We have moved the super d race to the fall and this weekend is now for the Duncan XC.
