Edmonton

Edmonton Canada Cup was the most organized and best laid out course so far this year. I know thats saying a lot especially since it's the first time these guys have organized a Canada Cup but here's what made it so great. It was DOWNTOWN Edmonton thats right the race took place in Kinsman Park right next to the university so there were more spectators there and it brought racing to where the people are rather then trying to get people out to the race. The course was excellent. It had a good mixture of fast single track technical descents and steep climbs. The organization was great and they had everything ready to go and also one of the biggest expo areas I have seen at a Canada Cup, or Nationals for that matter. It was great to come to Edmonton to race. And I look forward to coming back next year!!!
