Bautifuly set 2006 edition course started atop of Gunnar and veered left through the recently opened Yodeler trail, then back to Gunnar&amp;nbsp;flats and steeps.&amp;nbsp; The entry to the steeps was through&amp;nbsp;a sharp left turn that, if well executed, would set you pretty well for the easy carves to final at a really good speed.&amp;nbsp; It's a downhill, afterall!
Abundant finish area, although most of the&amp;nbsp;racers were opting to stop past the last fence gate.&amp;nbsp; It just felt better to slow down at a slower pace&amp;nbsp;but there was no risk of colision with other traffic.
Now, read this: due to FOG the race was called off! What a bummer, but even inspection felt great and made my day.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I recommend you mark your calendar for the next year.
Thanks to everyone who helped organize the race!</description><slash:comments>2</slash:comments></item></channel></rss>
