Skookum Youth Ride – Hill Climb Race
September 3, 2019 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
Event Details:
Starting this week the Youth Ride will be organizing a series of fun races! First week is a short Hill Climb test, followed in the next weeks by an XC race, a team enduro race, then finally a DH! We will be tracking points for each race with a winner crowned in each category at the end of the series. Skookum will be hosting a BBQ with draw prizes for all little rippers on the last night, Sep 24.
We need to be ready to ride at 5:30 as the daylight starts to become an issue in September.
See you there!
