We sent Brendan for a run in Pila, Italy, to see how hard the Genius rips. Turns out pretty damn hard. Please enjoy this clinic in “How To Descend” with Brendan Fairclough.
On the second leg of our journey through Japan, we met more local riders, & found some killer loamy tracks! A trail called Banksy, filled from top to bottom with natural burms, deep loam and natural doubles!
We also got to experience the epic Monkey Park, where we got to hang out with some rad little dudes…for sure a once in a lifetime experience!
Riders: Dylan Forbes, Justin Roy, & Mitch Gulliver
Local Riders: Jinya Nishiwaki, Tomoki Fuse, Dave Enright, Takashi Minamiura
On a track that seemed to have the thumbs up from every pro racing here this weekend, the DH World Cup finals in Vallnord, Andorra delivered up a modern classic. A slight rain drizzle punctuated the afternoon’s racing, but the course rode perfectly and didn’t dampen the spirits of the watching crowd or the riders.
Myriam Nicole had more than just the pressure of the race on her shoulders when she left the start hut. With the global headquarters of her bike sponsor, Commencal, just yards from the finish line and with family and friends in the crowd, this was an important race for the French rider and she delivered with the best time of the day.
