I know it's the same weekend as the 5000 down but sounds like it'll be a fun race…who's going?

Sun Peaks King of the Mountain
Me! Going up today to set my bike up and check out the course.
That looks like an awesome idea! I'm going to see if I can make that happen.

:safrica: - :canada:
Brett is MC'ing it, and I'm thinking I might even do it. Sugar to Arm Pump to Home Run. Super fun!! Just not sure about how all the overtaking on the trail is going to work?!

yeah it does look fun..
how much pedaling is involved?
Is there a Vancouver in Taiwan?! I had no idea!!
Nothing sums up my life's achievements like my stuffed corpse, suplexing a cougar.
Sugar is a bit of a pedal into it, as it kind of crests over the top of the bike park before getting onto the trail, and it has some pedally sections for sure. Arm Pump (black) and Home run (green) are faster and smoother from what I can remember.
I just back from doing laps. Let's just say I hope you're fit and your bike isn't heavy! Holy moly that was a lot of work.
Rough estimates…. 10 minutes up the chair, 10-12 minutes down to the bottom.
newgirl… wanna buddy up as a team ????

I would like to support the events but I have to choose and that sucks.

KOM is sponsored by Full Boar, so I'm sure that's not the same date.
5000 down is the same weekend, FBC is end of Sept/early Oct.
This is one of the oddest races I've heard of, but in a good way. If you choose a bike that is a little too small you'll kill everyone at the top but get murdered down below. If you choose a full dh race bike it would be the opposite unless you're super fit. Then you can't hammer too hard off the start because you'll probably blow up due to the uphill and altitude. If you pin it too hard you will find it hard to have the juice for 17-18 laps.
Too funny.
ok here's what I know…..The King of the Mountain is on the 11th and the 5000 down is on the 12th (although there is something going on with that race on the 11th as well). Need to check the 5000 down details. Looks like it would be race, then over the Duffy to Whistler for anyone interested in doing both, although that sounds super tiring to me.
D - seriously???? call me or pm me - I think this might be super fun!
