Red Bull Final Descent at Trestle Bike Park

Winter Park, CO - Trestle Bike Park is preparing for those brave enough to embark on the 12-hour downhill mountain biking endurance competition known as the Red Bull Final Descent this Saturday, September 8 in Trestle Bike Park at Winter Park Resort. Last Year, Winter Park Resort and Red Bull welcomed 100 athletes that competed for the 12 hours of racing; the winning number of total laps in Trestle Bike Park was a grueling 36.

A $500 cash purse goes to the series top pro male and female rider who completes the most laps. All other class series top finishers will receive a $120 cash prize.
