Updates - It's been a while
Well hey there! It has been a while since I have posted anything, in fact, I did not post anything in the month of April. Bummer. Well the reason for the lack of posts is largely due to the fact that we've been busy with a few events and the planning of a few more. (photos to come soon)
Sea Otter Classic
I went out to the Sea Otter Classic to watch the Giant Factory Team race some short track XC, dual slalom, downhill and super d. They had a great showing with a handful of top tens and even a few wins! Another reason for my Sea Otter attendance was to race downhill Saturday morning. (Cat 2, don't get too excited) Ended up doing okay, finishing the day in 13th out of 35, and roughly 10 seconds off of the leader's time.
Idyllwild Spring Challenge May 1 - 2
Nate Dogg and I met up with Mr. Excitement in the lovely San Jacinto mountains for the Idyllwild Spring Challenge Super D race. What a great venue, with its high altitude, clean air, and radical dirt. It may have been the most fun I have had at a race thus far. Without having ridden the course, ever, and having missed our start times, we all managed a top ten finish, with Nate pulling a 5th place, and Ian taking 7th place after a full stop crash. Talk about excitement.
Moving forward
The Crew is looking to go out to the Simi track for a few more practice nights, and even do a race before the end of the month. Rad!
Also, events coming soon. Stayed tuned, good things to come....
