Deer Valley day one







Deer Valley. Whoa, what a crazy course. The dirt is super loose and the track is burly as can be. For some reason this course is taking it's toll on riders and bikes. My first run claimed my chain and a chunk of my e-13 bashguard. Second run claimed a tube and twisted my bars. Finally my third run was a bit better and I started to enjoy the track. There is close to zero tracion on this dusty, dry, loose and steep course.


A bit of bad news from the first day of practice: "hurricane DK", David K broke his wrist and will not be able to compete at this race.



Pracitce at 10am tomorrow morning, I need to commit to some lines and hopefully work out the problems I have with the course.
