Ian from downhillnews.com showed up to take pictures of an un-named trail in San Luis Obispo. Richard Lancaster showed up back in town and raced against a few of us locals and some other out of towners. Lots of spectators came out to watch as well. A stop watch was found and we started timing runs for fun ; )
The "ride" was epic and we ended up doing one warm up run and three timed runs. My buddy Owen broke his wrist in warm up and was rushed to the ER. After that I was really spooked, since this is by far the most technical trail in California (as said by me and everyone that's seen it or ridden it) and since I got a concussion and a beat up shoulder from the trail 5 days earlier. Luckily before the first timed run, I got in the zone and was ready to shred. After my third run I had only had one fall in my first run but also one of the best race runs I've ever had in my third run. I got a 2:24, Lancaster got a 2:08 and local Dan Baggs tore it up with a 1:56. Best time ever is a 1:54 by Lancaster, which still stands. Enough talk, here are some of Ian's sick pictures.
