The 2015 Canadian National DH MTB Championships return to Sun Peaks Resort this weekend, July 10-12. Our trail crew got out there over the past week to give you a course preview, and an inside peek at what some of Canada's top riders will be descending at top speeds!
DH racing has deep roots at Sun Peaks. With a long legacy of racing in the early days of the Bike Park, Sun Peaks has proven itself over the past few years with a 2012 BC Cup, a 2013 Canada Cup, and National Championships in 2014, 2015, and already lined up for 2016! 2015 event details and registration: http://goo.gl/K1EvTi
Stay tuned throughout the weekend for updates from Sun Peaks Resort. Or better yet, come on up and bring your bike, get in on all the action and get up there for some lift-accessed descents!
Whether it’s on the trails, at the finish line or perusing these words from afar, we hope to see you this weekend!
