🔴Minor tweak to CSC #7 segment 3: "Highline E Descent to Hubman Landing 2", it's now "csc #7 East hiline DH". It's the SAME segment, just under a different name. The previous segment wasn't coming up on some users devices so we created a new segment. 🤠

Folks, it was exciting week 2, recap: Battle of the birds in the attack of the Montane to Harvie segment. Big Bird takes back his KOM from Young Thrush. Masters men is a tight fight with only 1pt separating Young Thrush from Simon Dove.
Still waiting for Fat Cat to make his move and take down these birds!
Liza Pye tosses her 'A la mode' moves down secure a QOM on the Montane Creek climb.
There's no outfoxing the Fox on Montane, Shannon holds her top spot carrying it forward to week 3 for masters ladies.
Week 3 segments release and results tallied, check it: www.canmorestravachallenge.ca 🤘
