2010 downhill series features five stops in four states. Heading into
its second year, the 2010 USA Cycling Professional Mountain Bike Gravity
Tour (Pro GRT) announced a five-event series for 2010. The gravity
series has been set up with the goal of raising the level of racing
across the United States by providing a consistent stage of
international-caliber events for elite gravity racers to showcase their
downhill skills
The Pro GRT will remain a downhill-only series for
2010 as it visits four states from April to September, beginning with a
return visit to Port Angeles, Washington, for the Northwest Cup on April
24-25. Each of the five stops will offer series ranking points to top
finishers, resulting in overall individual titles for professional men
and women. Additionally, competitors will have the opportunity to
accumulate international ranking points as two of the five races are in
scripted on the UCI calendar. The racers with the most points throughout
the five-race series will be recognized as the best gravity athletes
competing on American soil.
