Hello, friends! This Sunday June 24 is the third edition of Sellwood Cycle Repair and Team S&M’s Ski Bowl Classic MTB XC. It’s just a modest little race on a big, classic cross country course! We call it our “Big XC”. Weather and course conditions will be perfect. The trails will be very nice. The suffering should be sweet, too.
The Short Course racers will cover 11.5 miles and 1,850′ elevation gain over two laps. The Long Course racers will cover 26 miles and 4,500′ elevation gain over three laps. (See more about the courses below or on Sellwood Cycle Repair’s Facebook Event page for Ski Bowl Classic XC.)
The online registration closes at 11:59pm this Friday June 22. Register online and get a free meal pass at Mount Hood Ski Bowl–and get a swag bag at number pick-up, too. http://obra.org/events/26212/register
The on-site registration is from 8am to 9:30am on race-day. A meal pass can be purchased for $10.
The pre-race rider meeting will be in front of the Hurricane Bike Shop at 9:50am. Please be there!
Please remember that Mount Hood Ski Bowl Adventure Park is open to the public by 11am on race-day. There will be other parks users in attendance, so exercise all caution while racing and riding.
We will have podium ceremonies no later than 1:30pm.
See detailed course descriptions–with new maps–below! (We’ll have printed course maps at on-site registration.)
