What is Super D? It is a hybrid between traditional XC and DH racing. Overall the race is downhill but includes many trail types along the way. The courses are suited to a wider range of bikes and riding styles with fewer high risk obstacles than a DH course. Riders will also find several climbs on the course that will test endurance and stamina.

The Purpose of the HPT Super D: HPT of La Crosse would like to highlight the diversity of trails and terrain our trails encompass as well as exposing racers to new race formats and recruiting new racers to the sport. A Super D brings the excitement of downhill racing with less danger and without the need for a specific bike to be competitive. The format is also appealing to racers who are intimidated by or uninterested in the longer race format of traditional XC racing. Overall, a Super D puts to the test and values the various skills of all-around riders.

Schedule:
9am-11:30am: Registration and Practice (must be a registered rider to preride the course)
12:00 noon: Start qualifying round (all riders get one run to qualify for the final) 30 min break: Preliminary results and staging for the final round Following the Break: Final round of racing Classes We will have Men’s open, Men’s Beginner, and Women’s classes

Final: The top 30% + 5 (minimum of 6 riders) will qualify for the final (any rider within 5 sec of the top 30% will qualify to account for passing in the qualifying round). The final will have riders starting in a seeded time trial staggered start.

	... BLISS ROAD IS CLOSED - http://lacrossetribune.com/new...ode=story. This could add 10+ minutes and possibly some confusion for the drive up to the Human Powered Trails. The alternate route up is to continue south on Losey Blvd past Main st (can't go up Bliss - in a car) to Hwy 33 (State Road) east and then North on County Road F and finally north on County FA.

	... The only way it will be canceled is if we get over 3 inches of rain the evening before. Like we did last year nnWe would post an article on the frontpage of the website, and also on twitter and facebook if it was canceled.
