Sundance Super D and State Championship
Third time's the charm at Sundance. Third Place back in 2006. Second Place last year and First Place this year.
I'm not a huge fan of this course as it is just a glorified XC course and doesn't jive well with a 6.5" travel bike. However, we got a nasty storm in last night and it dumped water on the course making it super tacky and fast. Which made for great and fun racing as you could just punch the berms and corner like you were on rails which helped those of us more inclined towards downhilling.
What I was most pleased with was my time vs. Mike Holder. He was a hard one to beat last year (and still is this year) but moved up to the 40-49 class so we don't race each other anymore. I finally managed to take some time off of his gap on a course that doesn't sit well with me.
I was set up to take the overall Super D series after Brian Head. All I needed to do was show up and post a decent result and the points would just work itself out. So once again: Utah State Super D Champion Expert Mens 30-39.
Congrats to Mike Holder and Jay Migliore for taking the Championship in their age classes. See you guys next year!
Big thanks to Maxxis for hooking me up with all those tires at great prices. 661/Royal/Sunline for all the great prices on armor, clothing and handlebars.
And thanks to Turner for hooking me up with a great frame for the season.
Now it's time to close on my new place and move.
Rumor has it there is a mega-super D down in Moab in late October....who knows...
