Talking Fontana Race/SouthRidge Races
Hey everyone,

This was my first race today since joining STR. I just wanted to thank everyone that came out just to support the STR crowd.

It really meant a lot to me and I'm sure all the rest of the STR family as well.

Props to you guys.

Mott

Congrats to all the winners and participants at South Ridge Races today!

Where to start....I guess with the Women.

Pro rider - Nancy - denmother came in 5th today (edit)

Expert - Sarah 1st place finish, Allison 2nd
Beginner - Lacy 1st, Pualene 2nd

The races were very exciting and it was great seeing everyone out there.

I'll let everyone chime in on their race results!

I'm in the process of uploading pix.

Allison: 1st XC and 2nd in DH
Me: 3rd XC and 4th in DH

Default Fontana Challenge results
so how did everyone else do??

I won beginner men cross country 13-15 by 15 minutes... didnt mean to and it was an accident so ill probly move up so i dont get called a sandbagger.

Then i had an hour break and had my first super D race, which i also won... my time was 9:49 which won the beginner class by about a minute and Jason simpson's time was 9:45 which one the expert class
needless to say, they made a huge error or i got lucky... oh and by the way, me and hjason fell. i endo'd and got some cool battle wounds ( good thing i shaved my legs so theey heal faster and are easier to clean )

and last but not least, i got 10th out of 38 in mens beginner 13-15 Downhill, which im happy with considering i have never placed well in downhill races.

i think i had a good racing weekend. what about everyone else?

the kid will be running sport or higher from now on. i already told him that if i see him running beginner i am going to puncture his tire just before i start.

good work in XC and superD brandon! we need to work on your DH though! you should be faster than that. i heard you were doing some silliness though like pulling manuals instead of pedalling along the wall.

I'll post up race reports tomorrow. I got 1st in Sport XC (there's no way in hell I could do three laps out there and survive).

I had signed up for Sport DH, they listed me in beginner. I bumped up to Expert and finished 2nd.

Great weekend. I had SO much fun. Hearing people cheer you on just totally makes the entire experience.

I totally felt the same way.. My legs were totally worked from XC the day before, so I don't think I could give it my all today..
