The SCOTT Enduro Cup presented by Vittoria season is chalking up to be one for the books. The series now offers two Enduro World Series qualifier races and has just announced its final race stop, another new location for the five-year-old enduro racing tour. Deer Valley Resort will host the Park City, UT stop on August 28, 2016. New trails and improvements made to the existing trail system will make for a solid season finale.

"We are excited to see Deer Valley added as the fourth and final stop of the 2016 SCOTT Enduro Cup Season," said SCOTT Bike Marketing Manager Zack Vestal. "SCOTT is very familiar with the quality of trails and terrain offered at the Resort as it is closely located to our North American headquarters in Salt Lake City, UT. Deer Valley will provide a great finish to the race season."

Deer Valley Resort enlisted world-renowned bike park development company, Gravity Logic, to embark on the resort's largest-ever investment to modernize and update its existing mountain biking trail system. During the summer of 2015, they built the incredibly popular flow trail, Tidal Wave, and made improvements to many existing trails. Deer Valley is continuing their expansion this summer, 2016 with a new flow trail called Holy Roller. Fresh berms, rollers, and jumps will leave no question as to why the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) dubbed Park City, as a Gold-Level Ride Center, an honor that was reconfirmed in 2015.

"With the extensive upgrades to our mountain bike trails, it's a great time to expand our event offerings as well," said Deer Valley Events and Promotions Manager, Carrie Westberg. "We are thrilled to be able to showcase our trail system and support the SCOTT Enduro Cup series."

The SCOTT Enduro Cup presented by Vittoria will award $12,000 cash to the podium place finishers in the open class at each race stop. Podium place amateur riders will be awarded product provided by race sponsors. Vittoria is sponsoring a prime (preem), the Vittoria Bolt, at each race location for the fastest downhill time of a designated stage. One male and one female racer will win the prime awarding each a $100 cash prize.

Sun Valley, ID, (June 25-26) and new this year, Angel Fire, NM, (June 11-12) races are now officially sanctioned by the North American Enduro Tour (NAET). This acknowledges both races as qualifiers for the Enduro World Series. Read the press release.

 The variety of trails at DV should make for some fun stages. Tidal Wave isn't really an enduro trail, but I cant help but think about how much fun it would be to race on.

 There's no such thing as an enduro trail. Enduro is a race format, that's all. Regardless, I hope they include one of the legit DH trails in the Deer Valley race like NCS. That would be incredible.
