Created: 7/14/2010
The migration of hundreds of Mountian bike enthusiasts started on Friday last with organizers, volunteers and town folk gearing up for the big weekend event. Saturday, July 11th was the cross-country race which starts in Sierra City then heads up to the Sierra Buttes then down the Divide trails to the race end in Downieville. Saturday was also the day for the Big Air Demonstration Program in which riders take the big jump into the Yuba River. This is a video of one of the jumps. Check out more videos on youtube.
