Where: Kelso Conservation Area (Milton, ON), May 2nd and 3rd
Well the birds are singing, the snow has melted (well most of it) and it's time to get dirty! As with every O-Cup DH season we kick it off at Kelso in Milton, Ontario. This time honored venue is close to the GTA and always has the biggest crowds. Racers are excited to see friends, compare their new bikes and best of all, see who's been training hard in the off season.
Race day: May 3rd
Practice day: May 2nd
Super D race day: May 2nd
Super D will make its debut into Ontario this weekend with a course perfect for trail riders, XC and DH racers alike! This fast and flowy course will throw in a rock garden or two, plus a nice climb!
This year's DH course has a couple new treats with a new rock garden at the top and addition of a new rock garden at the bottom. But you aren't getting off that easy, the famed "rock drop" is back and should provide for a challenging course from top to bottom.
