Gölles wins Austrian
Downhill Championships |
|
The Austian Downhill
Championships were held in Lackenhof. The race track was
like Nevegal but steeper and 80%of the track was stones
and rocks. For the practice it was hard enough to go
down the course without crashing but for raceday it
started to rain on saturday afternoon and stayed like
this to the end of sunday. This made it even harder to
stay on your bike. Michi Gölles was the fastest rider
on sunday and became Austrian Downhill
Champion. |

KOBES
and KUDELLA win Players Cup in Ilmenau |
|
The
race course is getting better from year to year. This
year it had some double jumps, berms and bowls like in a
skatepark and at the end you have the 30m! drop next to
a ski jump. This all before you get in the last turn.
This turn is manmade out of wood and it is 2 meter
high. All this makes the track fun to ride. With the
times of two runs added for the win it was Britta Kobes
in the women races who got the fastest overall time to
win the race. In the men race it was Stefan Kudella who
had two times the fastest time and was the only rider
making it under 3 minutes. The race saw rider from
Finland, Chechia, Austria, Netherlands, Belgium and
Croatia. Pics
and results coming soon! |

cup comes to an end |
Avalanche
Cup Ventron / France
|
|
in
leysin / switzerland the 2000 world cup had the last race. with the
overall title already won by lopes, chausson and vouilloz the only thing
to grab was the race win. at the dual it went like usually and the wins
went to lopes and chausson. this mean they only lost one race in the
whole world cup season. chausson because she did not race the first
round in les gets. The track was build for some hard race. so lopes put
on his dainese to protect him in the case of a crash. The european
champion michael deldyck is getting better every race and we are waiting
for the next saison to see him going for the win. in downhill the
weather made it not easy. it was muddy and slippery and the long cours
was best for chausson who won by 40 seconds. in the mensrace it was
cedric garcia who who made the top of the podium. vouilloz in second and
pascal in 3rd place. could this race be the international france
championships?

downhill. 11 years old rider were rocking the cours even the big jumps

track was still in pretty good conditions and alex balaud won with a
time that was 7 seconds slower than the fastest kid one day before.
