Mad Trapper Canada Cup & BC Cup success at Panorama
Mountain bike race hosts over 200 riders
Panorama Mountain Village is delighted with the outcome of this past weekend’s Mad Trapper downhill mountain bike race. The race weekend was made up of both BC Cup and Canada Cup level races.
The Canada Cup race marked the final in the series which added pressure to the riders to perform, as they were competing for individual race results and for overall series standings.
Two hundred and twelve riders representing six provinces (British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland) and two states (Washington and Colorado) participated in the race. Many of these riders travelled with their own technical support teams as well as families and friends who cheered them on though the challenges of the course.
Reaching speeds of over 60kph (37mph) racers descended 380m (1,246ft) while navigating berms, treed sections and rugged terrain. Racers, in 27 categories, all ran the same course down the trails Insanity and Quadzilla.
Mark Wallace of Duncan, BC had the overall fastest time of the weekend finishing the course in an astounding 03:15.16 giving him the win for his category (Junior Expert Men 17-18) and resulting in him taking the overall top podium spot in the Canada Cup Race series for men.
Danice Uyesugi of North Vancouver, BC posted the fasted time for the women at 3:51.43 securing her position as the overall Canada Cup Race series winner for women.
The Panorama Bike Park will be open for another month of operation with its closing day scheduled for September 2, 2012.
