“Our season
couldn’t have been better, we had Matt Zdriluk secure the Junior Expert
podium at both O-Cup and C-cup races. Plus our new elite riders
were pushing some of the veteran elite racers of their usual podium
spots!” Said Peter Appleton. Not only did the team succeed on the
race course but they gave back to the cycling community by implementing
a FREE race day skills clinic for new and old DH racers. Over
60 riders attended and all of them left with some new skills and a couple
tricks to take a second or two off their times!
