NW Cup #2 / Pro GRT #1 - April 22-25

Apr 15, 2010
by Tyler Maine  
The second round of the NW Cup is upon us! After the first round mud fest, we had a lot of cleaning up to do, ruts to fix, lakes to drain, etc. The trails are now in great shape and ready for another round of use and abuse. Something new that we're doing here at Pinkbike is previewing the courses to all you racers that are heading there or want to know what was run on the weekend. We'll be doing this at all NW Cup and other race events that we're promoting this season, so stay tuned for Pinkbike Prerides coming your way all race season! Videos inside,

This round is also the first stop of the USA Cycling Pro GRT. We’ll have some of the best riders in the world taking on the trails at Dry Hill, so when you’re not riding, there will plenty of gnar-shredding to watch on the trails.

I couldn’t round up any pro riders to pre-ride the courses, but at least with me riding, you’ll get a closer look. Without further ado, here they are:
