Along with the the new races we also debuted the Nordic Center's incredible new trail network. Laid out and cut by none other than Matt Hadley, this trail network was intended to be a race course from the get go. Racers were treated to a course that required every bit of technical skill and fitness that a they could muster. The reward for their intense efforts were flowy trails that could be ridden by anyone, but only ridden fast by those with skill. Giant grins were the order of the day on both day's and although the courses were extremely demanding they were just plain fun ... goofy fun! Everyone was definitely ready for the fun to come back to MTB racing it seemed.
I won't go on, but "best ever course" is a pretty bold statement when you're at the Nordic Center, but that is what was being said by old and new racers alike ... perhaps another Canmore classic has been born!!
