Time keeps passing, and times keep being had! Our time in Downieville is winding down, and then it is on to Oregon. The race/festival was quite amazing to take in, to quote Miles Rockwell (ex-worldcup pro) “This race is awesome; it’s super fun but only serious when it needs to be”. The pixie cross and river jump were quite entertaining, while the highlight for sure was the evening’s entertainment. Saddle Tramp was their name and to tell you the truth I have never heard anything quite like it. Hillbilly rock at its finest, it was racist, sexist, and crud to say the least But, it rocked and everyone was have a great time, dancing and mosh’n the night away.
As for the race, Adam Craig took both stages of the all mountain category to win the pro men’s division. As for ourselves it was great to have a few days off to let the legs rest and the bumps and bruises heal up. We are itching to get back on the bikes thou, as many people we have been talking too have had great things to say about the riding Oregon, it’s also a place that none of us have ever ridden so it adds to the adventure a little not knowing what to expect.
On a side note, hurray for New Belgium breweries for their love of Canadians. We were treated to free beer and new friends. Not to mention its great beer!
This ones for MacLainer...
