Make it chainless... That's the only way it might be interesting. Its hard to believe Red Bull is actually sponsoring this event.
Red Bull has sales reps all over the country and they work with events like this to make it even more fun.
This is a UCI supported downhill race sanctioned by ABA. Its part of the Alberta Cup. I dont think they are going to make it chainless. Rabbit hill host fun races like that on their own, they call it freeride fridays. They host events like chainless and guess your time events.
And as for Red Bull being there. I doubt that there is gonna be like a Red Bull start gate and stuff. I think they are just gonna be giving out energy drinks and keychains, ect.

There will be lots of free stuff given out. Even if you're not racing you should come by.
Chainless maybe something thought about for later years. Right now we'll stick to the race and the dirt jam. The more people we have show up the more swag we can get for next year.

Hhahah chainless is the only way to make Rabbit a little bit fun... "A LITTLE BIT" as in a penny in comparison to a hundred dollar bill. Their downhill race course is a joke...
riding is riding man.. i dont know about you. but i would rather ride rabbit hill`s `downhill course`than not ride at all. so stop complaining.
I'm not complaining, just making fun of Rabbit hill. $269 for a seasons pass to crap trails. Fernie Alpine Resort's season pass is like $150. Riding is riding, a four day trip to the mountains will accumulate more riding than a whole season at sorry ass Rabbit Hill.

Ya, that sucks so bad. I know I'd much rather be in Edmonton than Vancouver. Because Edmonton is awesome. There's so much going on there, like a ravine... and some truck testicles... and rednecks in ball caps. Yup, sucks to be in Vancouver... wasting your time riding on those shitty old shore trais
Red neck edmontonian vs pretentious vancouver snobs.Go live with granny for the summer I wont miss ya.
You mean pretenious red neck edmontonians vs. laid back, lovin life, don't got time for hurtin Albertan bullshit, Vancouver dwellers, bud...
Ya sorry i was pitchin a fit on that comment,but as im sure you well know the neck is just as red on the b.c. side of the line as well.Peace Dude!
