Mt Washington BC Cup DH

Skip · 08-16-2012, 08:29 PM

I see they're back to running it on the old course this year. Shame, I like the 2011 course with the fast lift, and 4X bottom section :-/ Anyone else prefer the 2011 track or is it just me? It'll still be a great event though, always fun on that track, nothing quite beats going flat out into the rock gardens

I liked last year course, but I must say when I did my first lap down it, i thought the 2010 course was better. After a few practice laps, I really grew to like it.....so maybe the same will happen this year?

I will miss the treed section just above the 4x course.....that section was money.

Yeah its the old course. Fast and rough. One of the most demanding tracks out there.

I like how physical and rough the old course has always been, so I'm glad we're back on the full Monster Mile!

....All the comments from my buddies who rode the Monster on the weekend included the phrase..."Man it's a lot rougher than I remember!!"
