[motorcycle.com] - Harley-Davidson Winter X Games Snow Hill Climb Debuts Later This M
Winter X Games has added a new and exciting event to this year’s series: The Harley-Davidson Snow Hill Climb. The event will debut later this month in Aspen, where riders will race up the center of the SuperPipe course, head-to-head, on modified H-D Sportsters. This event joins the Hooligan Flat Track Series which debuted at this past July’s Summer X Games. The creation of this Snow Hill Climb event should help bring more awareness and attract new, prospective riders to our sport! Begin Press Release: MILWAUKEE – January 18, 2018 – In an X Games first, Harley-Davidson Snow Hill Climb will make its debut at X Games Aspen as a medaled event alongside ski, snowboard and other action-sports competitions. The new medal sport will close out X Games Aspen 2018, which airs January 25-28 on ESPN and ABC.* In the Harley-Davidson Snow Hill Climb, riders will race modified twin-cylinder motorcycles up the flat* bottom of the SuperPipe course. In each heat, riders will line up side-by-side at the start line at the base of the SuperPipe for a head-to-head race.** The first racer to ride the length of the SuperPipe and clear the finish line at the top will earn the “W.”* Each Harley-Davidson Snow Hill Climb race motorcycle consists of an extended swingarm widened frame and a high-torque, twin-cylinder motor.** “For 115 years H-D riders from all walks of life have expressed their freedom from the seat of America’s favorite motorcycle, so it’s natural for us to continue to blaze trails – this time off the road and in the snow,” said Scott Beck, Harley-Davidson director of marketing. “We’ve raced the ice and climbed virtually every kind of hill, and the Harley-Davidson Snow Hill Climb is another way for us to grow the sport of motorcycling. We know our riders, and X Games fans and athletes alike share a passion for adrenaline and speed.”* The gold-and-bronze-medal rounds of Harley-Davidson Snow Hill Climb will air January 28 at 10:45 p.m. ET live on ESPN.
