I woke up this morning to wet snow heavily coming down in Abbotsford. Luckly, as I drove closer to Vedder, the better the day was starting to look. As Harv Bergen, owner of Lifecyles had cheerfully put - "I think there might be some sun coming threw".

Most photo's taken by Rich Vigurs. Check out all the race photo's on the FVMBA Facebook Page.

The start line seemed to be under a mini blizzard at times, the weather didn't dampen spirits of the 63 hardy souls that come out to enjoy some sweet FVMBA Spring Series Racing!

Once the racing got under way promply at 10am, the weather became a none issue and the fun was turned way up!

For the series ender route on Sumas.
Today Kman and I finished up the EmmaPeel reroute with a new exit ladder .
Just above the new parking area( home to next weeks race central)
You will be able to see racers weaving down the mtn. towards the finish line. (what a view)
Yes we will have to buff it more later,but for now ,it's rocking.
Put more mesh on the NoahFear entry ladder and took out a couple of tree's across the trail.

Big things are about to happen. FVMBA and Mission Springs Brewery are stoked to bring you the Sumas Smack Down.
Race

This mass start race is a bit different than any of our Spring Series races. Its longer and will finally go higher up the mountian than we were able to during the Spring Series.

Heres the course http://connect.garmin.com/activity/215176575

Lifecycles will be awarding KOM/QOM and Super D splits. After an initial lower loop, the KOM/QOM will be timed from the lower parking lot up passed the yellow gate at the top. The Super D split will consist of a mid Knobgobbler and Squidline. Timing will be handled by Webscorer.com.

Pre registration entry is $30 and will close on Sept 19th. Your entry will include a free lunch courtesy of Avenue Body Shop and Doc's Auto Body, an entry into the Cap-it draw for a $500 Thule hitch rack and Specalized water bottle stuffed with goodies from Cliffbar.

We will be having a sub category for all those guys who enjoy the not-so-competitive side of racing. This will be the Heavy Pedal category. Rider and bike must weigh 210lbs plus. You will be required to weigh in at registration for this category. You can expect beer for your hard work.

You can pre register at http://reg.ccnbikes.com/index.php/cycling-events We are limiting this race to only 100 entries. If this race hasn't sold out by Sept 19th, there will be a $5 day of late registration fee. Day of registration is only open from 8am to 9am. Due to prep needed for Webscorer timing, we wont except registration passed 9am. Pre reg racers can still pick up there race package up untill 9:30am on race day.

As always, you will need to be an FVMBA member and have a Cycling BC license (UCI/Cit/clubaffiliate).
