Honoring Stevie Smith with Whistler’s Newest Downhill Race Track, 1199 | SRAMtv

The excitement this years’ RockShox Canadian Open Downhill brought to Whistler was really special. The race featured an all-new track called “1199“, which was built and named in honor of Stevie Smith, paying homage to the total World Cup points he accumulated in 2013, the year he took the World Cup overall title. Stevie was an inspiration for many riders, but was particularly idolized by the younger, up and coming racers. His accomplishments on the track and overall passion for riding launched a momentum in Canadian downhill racing, and helped the next generation to realize that they could one day compete at the World Cup level.
