tellurideboarder01 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Anyone coming to Telluride for the World Cup Races? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwavedave Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 yup, coming out from Minnesota. Last time I was there was about 10-12 years ago, the two consecutive years that the USASA races were there. Telluride remains my favorite area to ride. I've been waiting for a good excuse to return. My daughter got her first USASA nationals podium there and now will be competing in the WC PGS there. I hope Telluride becomes a regular host for the WC in the future. Have any idea which run the race will be on? I think it was on Lower See Forever for the USASA GS, which, I think might be rather flat for a world cup race.

inkaholic Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Newcarver should be in attendance for viewing. I wish I could come watch and see my old friends. I remember USASA nats down there. Good times :) Ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newcarver Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Yep, I'll be there at least a few days to catch all the excitement. The gates they had set up this past weekend were on the mid section of Misty Maiden. On the fairly steep section under lift 4. The starting area was at the top of MM where it comes off of Village Bypass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwavedave Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 I figured that since Misty was closed already that they were constructing the BX course there, but I know that they have to close the run for the PGS course a certain # of days ahead according to FIS rules.

newcarver Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 The BX course is at the bottom of section of MM. Right next to the lift in front of the village. You can see a lot of action just riding up the lift! Wonder how you will be able to spectate? I'll try and take some pictures when I go up on Fri. and post them.
