RACING RETURNS TO MAMMOTH!Wow, what a sick event. Truly stoked to have a race at Mammoth once again after nearly a 5 year stretch of no races.
I feel compelled to state that I got a speeding ticket on the drive up right before the I-14 merges onto the US 395, this was the only "bummer" of the 4-day weekend. The weekend was filled with riding, not only did we practice for the DH race but also "freerode" the mtn. and rode Cross country on some amazing single track. Too much went down to explain, but in the end I came across the finishline with a 9th place time thanks to a particularly sketchy run. Saturday night a bunch of us convened at Jen Wolf's (pro female racer and Mammoth local) house to watch Steve Peat win world championships!!! Pretty damn inspiring to watch all those racers from around the world give it their all for what has to be the biggest race of the season. Props to Cody Warren also for reppin the 619 and placing top American at worlds!! It was amazing to have the opportunity to spend a sick weekend with a bunch of friends racing and riding bikes at a legendary venue!
