HSC update!



Justin soaring by on his first race.
A couple weeks ago Justin competed in his first downhill mountain bike race, located in Spokane Washington. It is the first race, Double Down Ho-down of a series, the All Gravity Series. This race consisted of two races, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. It was very fun to experience the down hill racing culture. Fans are allowed to line up all along the trail, at any point they choose. Many of the fans and fellow riders, had cow bells, megaphones and other loud noise making devices to cheer as the riders soar by. The trails consisted of tricky corners, jumps and even following the path of an old waterfall.

Woah! 3rd place!
Justin is also competing in the Northwest Cup Series. The first race was this last weekend in Port Angeles. This race took place on Dirt Hill, but only has one race on Sunday. Justin performed very well, placing 3rd in class 2!

There are more races coming up! I will keep you all updated!
