It's coming-the 4th round of the Shimano Series!

There's alot on the line for the series and too much fun still to be had!

Can anybody topple the mighty Chris Kovarik in the DH?

Who will come out on top on the men's pro/semi-pro 4X?

The XC and Super D look awesome,folks!

Will 2-Wheel-Lee ever lose a race????

Bring your family-bring your friends!


Sorry, Denmother. My bad.

I have a feeling mark clemens might give kovarik a run for his money at one of the last races. He's crazy fast and will be even faster once he gets his new bike

If Sharky races-I'll hook her up and any other girl that decides to race 4X with a brand new e.13 38t chain ring. No joke.

Let's PACK the TRACK!

Sram shifter & Shimano 105 cassette and derailleur are you sure they are compatible ?

It says right on the front of the box "compatible with Shimano rear derailleurs" so hoping so? Price and what was in stock had a little to do with that choice.
They're calling for rain next weekend which means bring your sunglasses

How's the XC course? Do they have a beginner SS category? It's not that I'm halfway decent on my SS, I just think that it could be fun...

Unfortunately, no. You can race and do 2 laps. The other option is to just SS in the beginner age group you are in

I really like the course. Assuming it stops raining Friday, it will be primed and fast.

I'm a glutton for punishment... Memory tells me that Fontucky is hilly, no? A 32x21 might be a tad to high?

I will keep you guys posted!
