TIMED SECTIONS: Note that for this race you will only be timed on the BLUE SECTIONS. You will be timed from the start gates to Aid Station 1. You will not be timed as you traverse over through the valley to Maple Mountain. You will be timed again from the start of Maple Mountain to the Finish line. Your cumulative time from both timed sections will be your final time for Day 1.
Welcome to an amazing tour of the best singletrack riding in the Cowichan Valley Area The race route will encompass local favorites on Mount Tzouhalem and Maple Mountain with a one-timed course on each mountain separated by a transition that will allow you to spin out your legs. The route will mix it up with everything from undulating singletrack, too fast and flowy berms and whoops, and some sections that will put your technical skills to the test.
