Fall Super D Series

Here’s the news that everyone has been waiting for!
 
The Inaugural Vancouver Island Cup Fall Super D Series
 
Thanks for the patience by everyone as we launch this new race series. The volunteers who work tirelessly to provide you these races on their days off have a busy schedule with Cross at this time of year and we have tried to minimize overlap for those of you multisport participants.
 
What’s Super D?
 
Super D or Super Downhill, is all those race courses that don’t fit your regular 3-5 minute sprint course. For this year our courses will range from 9 minutes in Victoria to the rally race in Parksville of almost 20 minutes.
 
Each race will have a different format and final course details are coming shortly. Check out the Victoria Dumpster Dive hosted by Pro City Racing for the first example.
 
These races are going to be best suited to the All-Mountain bikes that have become the one bike stable of many islanders. Bring your riding buddies from the year and make this an end of the season test of your year’s improvements. Race head to head in the mass start events or against the clock in the timed events.
 
As with all Island Cup Events, Cycling BC licenses apply. Your race license for mtb is still valid for this series and $10 one day licenses are available for those without.

Food Bank Donations
 
This season we ask racers to please bring a non-perishable food item to each race for donation to the local Vancouver Island food banks. It’s our way to help out others at times when donations can be short. Cash donations will also be accepted.
