So you have the perfect downcountry bike, but what would be the perfect downcountry race?

I'm thinking a five hour time limit, in an area with a 220m climb, and 10 downhill lines that you only get to ride once each max. The intention would be to mass start approximately 300 racers to plan their own race and downhill order to maximize the number of unique downhills in the time limit. Each route down you'd collect a token as evidence of your completion of the line. There would be 4 climbing lines. Pretty sure it would be near impossible to do all 10 in that timeline, so fitness is key, but planning helps.

Am I on to something here? Have you ever seen a race like it? I'm looking at July 2, 2023. Let me know as I'd have to get planning!!

It feels like the perfect race for my izzo...
