June 22 Friday Night 5pm PRE-RIDE PARTY
JUNE 23 Saturday DAY ONE:
JUNE 23 Saturday NIGHT STAGES
JUNE 24 Sunday DAY TWO
The VP Components Dirt Club Enduro format will be based on WRC Auto Rally and European MTB Enduros. Our event will feature predominantly downhill timed special stages linked together by non-timed liaison stages. Each rider will complete the courses on the same bike without shuttles or lifts, riding along through check-points to the start of each timed special stage.
*All stages are able to be ridden by beginners. There are slower beginner “ride-arounds” for more difficult terrain where necessary.
SESSION 1 features two laps of a 10 mile loop with 4 special stages per lap for a total of 20 miles and 8 timed special stages. The special stages will all be short in duration, ranging from high-speed less technical trails, to short downhill and super d tracks with berms, jumps, and drops. We expect this to be a 2-2.5 hour day and will include slightly more than 2,500 feet of climbing. All of the courses have beginner ride-arounds to every feature, so reason to fear that any of the tracks are over your head.
SESSION 2: Night will require each competitor to have a light and will cover a six mile loop with two timed special stages. The special stages will be held on tight and fast descending cross-country single track that we expect to run around 3 minutes in duration each.
SESSION 3 will be the big day that likely decides the winners over a 10 mile course with two timed special stages. This will be essentially a two run Super D on the Dirt Club’s new Super D Flow Trail. The Super D Flow Trail features two short climbs, berms, pump features, jumps, drops, and even a big sender for 15-20 minutes per run. Again, this entire course can be ridden by riders of all ability levels and there are beginner options for challenging features.
