The 2009 Fluidride Cup is returning with a 6 event series.You'll ride up with Maxxis' Luke Strobel, Transition's Lars Sternberg and last year's Pro Mens Champion Bart McDaniels but I doubt you'll be going down the course with them.
Will dissolving the 'semi-pro' class change things? You bet! Welcome to another season of gravity racing!
2009 Race Schedule

Just like last year, nDub Productions and Petr Kakes of Hurricane Racing will be handling the race timing and course. You have to get your new USA Cycling License and permits to enter. There's been a long list of added sponsors to the ones that supported it last year. I haven't got the finalized listing to show yet. But stay tuned for many more updates here on Pinkbike.
For registration and details- go here. (note: As of this writing- it was still 2008 information- don't fear- that page will be updated very soon!)

I just started the 2009 Fluidride Cup thread right here for discussion. Did I cover it all? Will Luke Strobel beat 40+ year old Bart McDaniels? Will the former 'semi-pro's' make things interesting in the pro class or will they 'sand-bag' the Expert class? Let's chat about racing.
