SEPTEMBER 18th, 2021
CYCLO X Valmont - September 18th, 2021
his 6-race Shimano CYCLO X Series is back for it's 23rd edition! The action starts at race #1 Valmont Bike Park! The Valmont Course has a bit of everything; the short Belgium Stair Case, the longer 5280 Run Up, and one of the hardest sand boxes ever devised. Overall the course has been designed to favor the rider with "punchy power" and a high top end gear. Each climb and stair case is immediately followed up by either a recovery downhill or fast gravel/sidewalk section
