Mountain

Not one city along the Colorado Front Range has as many trails right out your front door as FTC.  You can easily stitch together 4-6hrs of MTBing from your driveway. Horsetooth and Lory Parks are among  the best in the nation.   Drive a few miles up the Poudre Canyon and you can lose yourself for days.

The city and county are opening countless trails every season.

There are rumors out there that FTC will be hosting more than just the CSU mtb race in 09.   Keep an eye out for information on the ever popular New Belgium Mid-Week Short Track Series.

We are working with Net Cairns, Single Track Trails and 'Overland Mountain Bike Club to map and describe all the local trails.

Keep checking this page for up-to-date information on the local mtb scene.

NBST 04/28/09 Results
Thursday, 30 April 2009 19:31

We had another great day of racing at the New Belgium Short Track race this last Tuesday. Nearly 160 racers turned out for the pain.  I'm pretty sure I've got the black lung now.   The last race in the series is this Tuesday.   Big thanks to the folks at Walrus Ice Cream for donating $200 worth of ice cream to the kids race.  I've added a great video from the kids race.  Check it out.

Note from the race crew:

This is pretty much the best we could do.  We will continue to try hard to get the most accurate results possible and will roll out an idea to each class individually at the next event.  This could be like the pro/open in that we asked them that if they get lapped (due to physical or mechanical issues) by the leaders then they can continue to race but they would not cross the finish line on the last lap and we scored everyone in order as they came across.  In this case we would not count laps, just score in order as racers finish the last lap.  It worked well (I think) and was the easiest way to get the most accurate results posted.  Kind of an honor system in that if you did cross and were lapped you might be scored as 5th but really not.

 

Think about it and I will ask each class about this at the start of your event.

2010 Laramie Enduro Course
Thursday, 29 July 2010 12:31

Via http://laramieenduro.org/

Course Notes:

The 2010 course is very similar to the 2009 course with some minor re-routes here and there to avoid some really deep water – we didn’t think it would be a good idea for you to ride with flippers and a diving mask. Specific course details are available here.

Just before Aid Station #2 there is a reroute at the bottom of Aspen Trail – be ready for it as it’s an about-face right hand turn. It’s a great little section of single track that’s mostly flat, then downhill – super fast, super fun! At the bottom, you’ll do a minor stream crossing (only about 2 feet wide and literally 2-3″ deep), then take a right towards station 2.

The next change happens after Aid Station #3 – there is a really sketchy singletrack that got washed out and to boot, it was located next to a barb-wire fence (yikes!). So there’s a new section of singletrack that’s – um, way cool! It avoids the rutted section for about 1/4 mile, then gets back on the original single track – note that this section is next to the fence, so be extra cautious.

The last change is a minor reroute prior to Aid Station #5 where there is a massive bog – with the reroute, you’ll miss getting wet and muddy.

That’s about it folks – have a great race!
