KING OF THE LAKE - NC State Super D Championship Series

[Guard]

BMCC will be hosting the King of the Lake NC State Super D Championship Series for 2013. This series will consist of three races at W Kerr Scott Dam (aka Dark Mtn Trail System in Wilkesboro).

Race #1 - Headwaters Hustle - March 9th, 2013 - this race will be held on a new course that is approximately 4 miles from Dark Mtn. The new course is a loop off of the Warrior Creek trail, called Headwaters. This race will also include a "Dash for Cash" that will be held immediately following the Super D.

Race #2 & 3 - Dark Mtn - dates TBD

Attached are two race info sheets. One is for the series and the other is for the Headwaters Hustle & Dash for Cash.

We are in the process of updating our website (bmcc.us) so if you click to it nothing is posted yet.

This should be a fun series...hope you can join us!!!

Sounds good Matt. Looking forward to riding warrior creek too.

Headwaters, is that the one with the berm the size of a house ? Coming down that would be a blast.

Jeremy you still haven't ridden WC ? You'll dig it.

Whats the best way to get to headwaters without riding the whole WC including parking? Ive never been out there.

I saw this question in another thread but I cant find the thread.

This is a different section than the big berm section. That's on the main loop. To get to Headwaters without riding everything, park in the upper parking lot (old slalom course). You can either take the road in or ride Warrior clockwise (backwards). It's about 3 miles right now. We are working on a new easy loop for campers and it will also allow quicker access to Headwaters. Our next trail day is on January 12th and we maybe able to connect it in. We do have a dated trail map on our site (bmcc.us). Click on Kerr Scorr Trail Guide and then open the Warrior Creek map.

Also if anyone wants to come out to the trail day we could do some runs on Headwaters afterwards. And BMCC will be providing lunch too!!!

Yes.

Looking forward to comparing my big bike time to my not-so-big bike time at the Super D's though.

Anyone know what the conditions are like? Im thinking about heading out there Mon or Tues

Course is pretty heavily covered in leaves. This week hasn't been ideal so haven't had a chance to go blow it off.

The super D portion of the course is all clear. If you pre-ride it, the super D will end just before a small rock-water fall type section. This is right before you go into a mild prolonged climb. I plan to clear the Dash part of the course this coming Saturday.

Also we're having a trail day this Saturady January 12th, meeting at the Warrior Creek parking lot at 9am. Plans are to work on a new short loop for the campers that will also be a short-cut connector to Headwaters. We'll end the trail day around 1pm. BMCC will be providing lunch for the trail crew followed by a ride. If anyone can make it out for the trail day &/or the ride just let me know when you arrive (704-903-3831). Once we drive in at 9am the gate will be closed so I can drive back out and let you in.

Is there a gate fee to get to the parking lot by WC?

no fee to ride there. from the parking lot you'll have to pedal a few miles in to get to the course. i did finish blowing the leaves off of the rest of headwaters yesterday. we've had a lot of rain and calling for more this week. the course is slick & muddy so would advise waiting till it dries up some.
