Default Southridge #2 Race Report

Raced xc today. That course couldn't have been much better after all that rain. Other than a few puddles here and there it was about perfect.

After I raced I decided to get pictures of the Super D. I hadn't planned on it so I didn't have my flash, and as a result a lot of them didn't come out as well as I would have liked. So with that in mind I'm happy to email a digital file to anyone who wants one. Just pm me your email to send it to. I would of course appreciate the support if you like your photo and want to buy the print.

You can see them here - http://www.whitespider.photoreflect.com/

While I was waiting for the SD to start I took a couple shots of the downhill practice and put them up there too.

That dirt has traction written all over it, gonna be a good race if it holds its moisture!
Nice pics.

It was less than usual. Only 2 in my class compared to 4 at the last race. Other classes had a few more, but overall it wasn't a big turnout. I'm sure a lot of people were at the Temecula race.

Gee was so smooth and flying when I saw him riding the top section of the track yesterday. I think it will be interesting to see who is the fastest to the asphalt T just before the start of the wall.

Well, apparently people were talking about it. I'm the D-bag that ate it head first into the wall during practice this morning.. 70n if anyone has pics of that. This was such a fun course, i made the mistake of drinking a Red Bull for Gee just before my race. I was so amped up i was shaking up top, made for a clean but def slower than practice race run.. Ended up 8th out of 20. But all in all, a great weekend. And Gee and Rach are amazing people

I came blazing out of the lower garden, decided to get a little steezy on the hop down the wall. And front tire pushed just enough to point me directly at the wall. I up rooted a plant with my dome hahahahahaha, I'm TOTALLY fine. A scratch on the arm, some guy took pics right AFTER the crash so maybe one during will turn up. I will say this, I'm happy i was wearing my Leatt, i got right up and a couple of guys just asked me "how the hell are you up and walking after that wreck" I could feel my helmet resting on the Leatt and i was just along for the ride. It was actually pretty fun

I talked to Rachel today, asked how her recovery was/had gone? she said great! She was super stoked to be riding DH again and gearing up for her WC season...I didn't ask why she wasn't racing today although she did ask me if I was racing.
