Nothing is confirmed. Last year I think it was the day before the Maxxis series race.

Combination of DH and XC. Most people use a XC FS bike.

But DD uses a custom tricycle based off of the tried and true Murray steel frame with J10 zero POG 650B wheels with a Racing Ralph mounted on the front, a Kenda Small Block 8 on the left rear and a S-Works on the right rear. It's a highly specialized rig, but a bad a55 ride! |

What do you think? The "Super D Super Clyde Class" has a nice ring to it... |

Yo DD, what part of the mtn is included in the race normally?
Any talk of working on the jumps in the lil DH run? Some of em look like they could use some TLC. lemme know. I'd be glad to come shovel. |

It may change for this year, or may not even happen but...
Typically it starts almost at the very end of the "jeep road". You'll see a little ramp used for starting in the past--then goes down the jeep road hitting all the small jumps in the middle, the rock, the jump on the left of jeep road, and continues to the level area of jeep road. From there, it can turn and go down the old DH course, or you just keep following the "burn" route to start exiting DM. All log rollers/jumps will be included. I might have confused you with my bad explanation, but we can get Supecusty out there to give you a guided tour.

| SuperCusty has a banged up leg right now so you would have to be able to follow his Zen-like directions on how to clear the 30' gaps by listening to him tell you about rather than watching his lines... |
