Loonie TT
Well, tonights loonie was something special!
It was a time trial event with 10 second start intervals and a huge amount of racers (well.. riders as a most part). Needless to say there was a good mix of bikers participating as always, some not finishing due to mechanicals or biologicals, but it was a fairly tough course with the winner finishing in 40 minutes!
The course included a vast amount of the Lost Lake trail network with some fast sections and more technical single track sections.
The apres was put on in the GLC and sponsored by Samurai Sushi, Slope Side supply, the GLC and Whistler Bike Park. The race finished before the end of extended play, so it was pretty amusing to watch the lycra clad racers coming down along side the downhill armour shod dudes!
For more info on the loonie races, check out worca's site and for a map of the crosscountry trails in and around Lost Lake, take a peak at our cross country pages
It became clear tonight that there is still som eserious training to be done before the Gear Jammer and 24hr races, I just need to stop having so much fun on the DH bike and get myself motivated for some cardio punishment!
