2020-01-20 07:30 - 16:00 | Bretton Woods, Bretton Woods, NH, United States
THE RACE FOR THE CLUB CUP IS TIGHT and our club is within striking distance. Never before have we held this close to the top of the leaderboard, with only a few key points separating us from the lead. Remember, everyone that races scores points for the Club Cup, regardless of your ability level or speed. The Club Cup is most often won by participation number, NOT by hardcore racers. The best opportunity to close the gap is the Geschmossel ski race
This event features a beautiful, gentle course and conditions are looking fantastic with a big storm of new snow hitting New England on Saturday.
