Notification Alert

Scott Downhill Development Series 2024 Presented by Dakine

Wednesday, August 28
Tonight’s Race Cancelled Due to Weather!

However, we’re opening up tomorrow night’s race to all participants! We’re planning for it to be on Big Logdin, but if the trail is too wet, we’ll choose a challenging alternative.
Stay tuned for more details tomorrow morning!

Sign up here!

Wednesday Afternoon Downhill Development Details: 

We’re stoked to introduce a new twist to our weekly Mountain Bike events. This year, Wednesday afternoons will be dedicated to our downhill development series for people of all ages to enjoy. For those of you looking to focus more on developing your own riding without the pressure of a weekly league, this is the night for you!

We’ll be timing you on a selection of beginner / intermediate routes, and we’ll hit each route twice over the summer so you can track your own improvement. Each week, there will be draw prizes so that everyone can win, and each race you come to will get you an entry into our big end-of-summer prize draw. If you come to all 9 races, that’s 9 entries!

Come out each week for a fun, gravity-fed downhill race followed by prizing, results, and a beverage at Legends Mountain Eatery.

Races run weekly from June 26th to August 29th, with the exception of July 3rd & 4th, to allow our team to prepare for the Canadian National DH Championships.

For more advanced riders or those seeking to participate in a weekly league, check out our Scott Thursday Night Races!
