The updated course features new trails with the start/finish moving back to the “South” Park off Cliff Dr. This is a bike handling course with many twists and turns with approximately 800’ of vertical climbing per lap. The course will have a beginner lap and sport/expert lap. In addition to the cross country race, there will be music, tasty food, vendors, clinics and many other cycling related activities.

The Super D course will take place on the same cross country course, but starting from the top of the hill (next to the downhill start) with a time trial interval start.
