Looks like it will be even better than last years event! I wish I could go this year. It sounds like there are quite a few Alberta Pros that are planning to do both the QB and ON rounds. :canada:

Only 10 days to the the PSGP presented by Honda!!!!

Most hotels are already full so please get on it if you plan to come and stay at a hotel. Trust me I learned the hard way and I am the organizer :crybaby:

If you are planning on racing then please sign up here PSGP Webpage

There is a limit of 120 racers so once we hit that number registration is shut down. We had about 90 racers last year but with almost double the number of Western racers coming this year I think we will get very close to that 120 limit.

Course details:

As like last year I have setup the tests in areas that should it rain the integrity of the course will be maintained. Actually given all the sand it will make the test better should it rain.

The transfer trails will be harder to ride in the rain but the lap is about 40% tests and 60% trail.

Cross Test: Another masterful creation by Rob Martin and friends!! It is about a 4.5 min test that flows very well with some great jumps and awesome sweeping corners. I hope WEC has the top test awards again this year because I think this will be a winner again!!

Enduro Test: Fast and technical. We are using part of the Cross Test from last year and will book end that section with some technical single track. This test is shorter then the Enduro Test from last year but more technical.

Extreme Test: This has been the toughest test to put together due to changing landscape from heavy rains. But we have it nailed. The famous rock face is back again this year!!! There will be a bypass for non Pro/Vet Pro/A riders of the rock face again this year. This will be a spectular test to watch. If you thought the ending was cool to watch last year just wait until Sept 11, 2010 :thumbsup:

Word on the "street" is that Ryan Gauld, Jake Stapleton and Mike Lafferty will be throwing down the gauntlet at this event.

So come race or watch and enjoy the fastest growing off road series in Canada.
