Aaron Chase: good doctor appt today for my back. 3 years later and the rods are still holding strong. He did tell me I have "dead butt syndrome" though?
This month we were lucky enough to catch up with team rider Kevin Aiello on his home trails. Enjoy Kevin's down right nasty whips. Send us a pic/video of your whip to be in the running for FREE product and gear courtesy of www.darktimbers.com
I headed back out to Fontana last weekend for round #2 of the Cal State series. This was my 1st race since having my 2nd baby girl, and I was pretty stoked to get back out on the DH bike! Saturday was DH practice, and I rolled out later in the afternoon. It ended up being pretty hot out there, and after 1 practice run I called it a day. The course was almost exactly the same as the National course a few months ago, so I didn’t have any stress about learning a new track. The main difference was there wasn’t going to be the Wall section at the bottom, which was probably due to the 2 run format they’d run on Sunday.
After watching the World Cup on the internet Sunday Morning, and seeing my boy Gwinny score a solid 7th place, I was motivated to go have some fun racing! I did 2 practice runs in the morning, and I was ready to roll. I’m still struggling with a nagging foot injury, so my plan was to just ride smooth and safe. My first race run went well, I hit all the lines I wanted to hit, but I rode pretty cautious. I ended up 2nd in the first run. My 2nd race run was slightly faster, and I just tried to roll through sections off the brakes a little more. I was 2nd again, and 2nd overall on the day.
Thanks again to all my sponsors for the support this year!

The roudy and wet DH through the streets of Lisboa Portugal went off this past weekend. Our own Mick Hannah pulled off a 4th place finish in the tough conditions. Congrats Mick and good luck this weekend in Maribor!
