NW Cup 2025 Round 6: Snoqualmie Pass, Wa
This time, the crew rolled into Snoqualmie Pass Bike Park — and once again, the venue delivered a weekend full of great racing, great people, and some truly unforgettable runs.
Now in its second year hosting the NW Cup, Snoqualmie Pass continues to raise the bar. With dedicated tracks for Cat 3, Cat 2, and Cat 1/Pro, plus fresh reroutes for two of them, this wasn’t just a repeat of last year — it was a whole new challenge.
Road Trip #2 is officially underway!
Set high in the mountains, Silver’s fast and technical track never disappoints. With tight corners, loose terrain, and just the right amount of tech, the racing was as close and competitive as it gets. One of the best parts of racing here? Two lifts. That means plenty of laps, more time on the bike, and a chance to really dial things in before finals.
