Sep 20 – XTC Squamish – Squamish

GENERAL RACE INFORMATION
We are heading to the “Outdoor Recreation Capital of Canada”, Squamish, BC. Squamish is probably one of the most amazing places to ride in BC (and in Canada).

There is currently an event happening on the same weekend we use to host XTC Vancouver so we will be changing the race weekend by one week. We have secured Alice Lake for Sunday, September 20, 2009 (we originally announced September 19th but there is another event in Squamish that day so we changed it to the Sunday)

Don’t miss XTC Training with Jen Segger!
