Course Description

DC/DH Top to Bottom…..

Ya, that’s right, DC/DH, the Cumberland classic downhill. All reports are saying that course is in great shape. Lots of work to rebuild the start ramp, buffing along the course and some new lines will make for some great racing. Come and check it out beforehand for some stoke before the event.
