this looks like a kick ass event.. I spent a weekend at the resort back in 2001. awesome golf courses. nice ski hill too. guess they added a snowboard park since then.

unfortunately I'm going to miss the inaugural year due to previous mx commitments... man I'm bummed.

Muezh,
We set the course up a couple weeks ago. Straight up fun - old school natural terrain style.
Crazy uphills and downhills......off-cambers.......rocks......mud...

Plus the resort is beautiful........the Bibers are completely committed to this. I still can't believe they are letting us do this.

$5000.00 Pro purse.......i think some EnduroCross guys may stick around from Columbus the weekend before....thats pretty good $$$$

Probably the only time a few motocross racers rode on a $10M+ golf course... legally.

awesome...

I've only spoken with Jason a few times out at Irish but he's into motocross and it shows.

I'll be looking forward to seeing some photos and video from 4mxonly.

Ben will be producing a video similar to what you've seen him do for Cobra or Baja in the past. I'll be sure to post a link to the video and a sample of event photos with captions on here as well. Also, I'll try to get some pictures of the track the next time I get up there (prior to the race). Should be a great event... and like Tom said, the Biber family is very committed to this event, we are lucky to have them hosting this race at such a beautiful and accommodating resort. Sorry to hear that you won't be able to make it Muezh.

This is going to be such a cool event. I gotta hand it to Baja MX and the Bixby bros. I was fortunate enough to make it to Freeze X Fest that they put on this past February and all I can say is WOW! This group knows how to put together a good show. Unfortunately, I'll be in Vegas at the US Open but I can't wait to see Ben's footage from the event. This should be some good old school motocross action. Bust out the 2 strokes boys!!

Looks incredible - let me get this straight, the track is on the golf course? That would be a dream.

Actually it will be on the ski hills. Far more challenging then the tame golf course.

Unless someone can name another place......i believe this will feature the longest uphill this side of the Mississippi. This uphill goes on and on and on.....Nick,Josh and Jerry all said longer then Glen Helen for sure(I've never ridden the Pro track at G.H.)

In the video it shows Nick going up the hill............that is the first face. It goes up three more times before the top. Don't forget to fill your gas tank....35mins will drain it.

Serious fun..............

This looks like it would be awsome! I'm planning on riding at Irish that weekend though.
