Rd#2 !!! CANCELLED!!! “Black Diamond XC” Sunday April 28th – New Plymouth, OH

Tim W | 24 April 2019 | Site News | |    

SORRY FOLKS DUE TO 4 MORE HOURS OF LATE EVENING RAIN AND MORE EXPECTED OVERNIGHT AND INTO THE MORNING WE HAD TO MAKE THE CALL TO NOT MOVE FORWARD WITH THE ROUND TWO EVENT AND WILL BE RESCHEDULING SOON.

On Sunday April 28th we will are excited to be hosting our Round #2 event at the “Black Diamond XC” located in New Plymouth, OH.  This property has the best of both worlds as far as very easy off the road access with plenty of level parking as well as lots of woods for us to carve in a few new virgin trails!! The track itself will have alot of great features for the racers to enjoy as they tackle a variety of trails ranging from tight technical to some open “GP Style” Grass track sections as well as a great variety of elevation changes. We also plan to reopen the very challenging optional pro hill climb for the adult bikes (weather permitting) which makes a great spectator area just a very short walk from the pits, check out the video here. We also have been working hard cutting in some new adult bike single track sections as well as a new quad only section. If the weather cooperates with us the next few days we may also add in the endurocross section near the finish area. As far as mileage, we are estimating approx 6+ mile long adult bike and quad track, stay tuned for more info as the track layout progresses…

The parking area at this facility has easy off the road access and there is plenty of room to bring in your toy haulers or campers in to make it a full weekend family adventure with us (reminder gates close at 11pm Sat eve)

As always there is no extra charge for primitive camping. See the bottom of this page for track address & directions.

Our transponders are the stick on type which go on the back side of your helmet. The transponders are a one time cost of $10.00, sorry we cant rent them out per race. It will be a one time purchase and as long as you don’t damage it, lose it or switch helmets. If you already have one of these stick on style transponders from any other race series, you are good to go as long as it passes the reader test at registration.
