Mashr thanks for the info but I know when the race was, sorry to confuse you, mid oct was a reference to next year, even Finn Iles questioned it by saying hopefully it's not snowing, the conditions were crap, plenty riders strayed off course, rocks too slippy/greasy, it's more dangerous than needs be, crap for spectators too, they shortened the course and they still had visibility issues at the top, mist is definitely a problem for both riders and filming, MSA round deserves better weather, so much better earlier in the year, might even get cancelled next time, there'll be more maple leaves on the floor than on the trees.
I find it weird at times how organisers think. We have it at Nationals with Rheola the first weekends of April, it's generally a monsoon all weekend.
You'd think someone would say "hows the weather at XYZ time of year".... then go from there.
There is another cable car in the UK remember...

I reckon the date shifting a week back is their desire to have the race on the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend. It'd be a party to rival Les Gets, whatever the weather!
I raise you a chair lift!
Looks more like a button lift, but extend it to the top of Dollywaggon and we could have a viable track.
