The second ever race at the Ancient Peaks venue has come and gone.
Riders last year had a hard time through the Rack garden that was built
so they adjusted that some on the Pro and Expert line. The downhill
course otherwise was pretty similar. They also added a Dual Slalom
course for this event and they had a number of entrants for it.
The downhill is loaded with a high-speed fireroad start that shoots
riders left into the trees. Once into the trees riders hit berms and
drops ranging from 3-4 feet. S0me of the corners are bermed while others
are off camber. There was very little rain so the upper section was
very loose and made it hard on some riders to carry speed through the
off camber turns for sure.
