Presents SUNDAY, AUGUST 18, 2019 Web: http://www.dirtynein.ca Facebook: http://facebook.com/thedirtynein Twitter: @thedirtynein Technical Guide - Version 1.1. Published April 24, 2019 Dirty Nein Technical Guide – Version 1.1 – April 24, 2019 Additional Sponsors: 2|P ag e Dirty Nein Technical Guide – Version 1.1 – April 24, 2019 General Information Last year, one of our KW Mountain Bike racer friends invited some of his closest friends to celebrate his 39th birthday by running a short course MTB race around his condo complex. He called it the Dirty Nein. When some 50+ riders showed up, his wife told him if this happened again, there would be trouble. So, we moved the race to Bechtel Park. Figure 1: Dirty Nein 2018 The KW Cycling Academy presents the “first” annual Dirty Nein Mountain bike race, bringing MTB racing to the City of Waterloo. All proceeds to support the KW Cycling Academy and youth racing in the KW region. The race will be held at Bechtel Park in the south end of Waterloo with wide fast flowing trails, fast descents, a jump line, and tough climbs. Following UCI short course racing rules, the race will be timed with riders as many laps as they can on this fast course. We expect lap times around 5-7 min for top riders. Situated on a hill, the course runs up and down the hill with obstacles to challenge riders. We will have a large area for team and vendor tents ride along the race course that will provide a great view of the action. Centrally located only one-hour west of Toronto and one-hour east of London, the Dirty Nein will challenge racers with a technical course across grass, gravel, pavement, and sand. If you’re new to mountain biking and an “old” pro, you’re wanting to see what this side of cycling is all about, this is the race for you!
