Qualifying day at Killington World Cup had stacked times within seconds from each other. New track records were set and we had a surprising top qualifier result.
Today kicked off day 1 at Killington World Cup (the last race of the North America circuit). Rainy remnants of Hurricane Florence had drifted up the coast and into Vermont causing some low hanging fog and rain over the past few days.
Just the other day I was standing on the corner of the track at Mt. Jefferson watching practice runs go down and I see someone in black/red leathers and say "holy sh*t is that Ed Kiefer?!"
After seeing the qualifying results on Saturday it was evident that race day would consist of some tight riding and potentially some discrepancies. Needless to say, that’s exactly what we saw at Gravity Fest.
Since 2002 the Gravity Fest Race has returned each year to the town of Munnsville, NY. Although the event is old, this year it has been disrupted by some young gun riders that set the track record.
First Timer, The Come Back, and Another Icon. We had an action packed day today at the Mt Jefferson race in North Carolina.
Yesterday we kicked off the event with 15 freeride runs; what better way to start day two than with more 5 more freeride runs? Around 12:30pm, racers gathered into their seeded first heats to run the Round Robin race-to-qualify brackets. (See the day's running order here.)
