Pleasant surprise to find out yesterday morning that I placed 3 rd in the 100 cone masters slalom event in Salem Oregon at the "Oregon Games". John Ravitch and I left the event early to catch our flights. I knew I had placed fourth overall on the 100 cone 6 foot course but didn't know I medaled for the second year in a row in the master division. I'm very stoked. John qualified first in the slalom cross and then we had to take off. Great weekend. Thanks Pat!

Hybrid Results:

Cory Moy second

Brad Jackman third



Giant slalom Results:

John Striker First and a gold medal

Tay Hunt second with the silver

Brad Jackman third with the bronze.

Sunday started with the tight slalom, which was a timed event where racers choose either the hard or easy course.

In the hard course, there are 100 cones spaced 6.5 feet apart. The easier course had 80 cones spaced 8 feet apart.

Riders choosing the harder course will place higher than those choosing the easier course, and if a rider hits more than 10 cones or misses any cones, he or she will be disqualified for that run.
