Look at Vanderham in Seasons. 78 kph over a jump! That's FAST!!!

There are 3 corners on Pleney in Morzine. They are on a piste section and wiiiide open fast. If you get it right you can easily hit 65-70. Dan hit 65. The fastest I dared was 59 according to my cat eye. And that feels so GODDAMNED FAST!

LOL. Yeah, I think my fastest is about 70 on the JT. That was on my hardtail. According to my Sigma at the time.

Holy crap, that's dicey! I reckon the guys were doing about 45-50 hitting the big sender on Saturday. I was doing about 15-20, seeing as I was too knackered to even stand up and pedal. True story.

Haha. on my 2nd run I had a conversation with the photag in the quarry i was so ended. Had a GREAT time tho. So much fun riding a race 2 minutes from my house.

 

I will admit that i was pretty comatose the whole of yesterday.

Yeah. But that was in the days when I was doing the JT all the way down. Stoopid.

WTF is a JT?

I didn't even stay for the 2nd run. Tasted blood in my throat after the first, so I called it a day. Ah, reaping the fruits of having spent 300 hours/month in front of a PC for the last 4 months instead of riding....

You know when you see heads dropping at the thought of pedalling, "game over" !

 

Guys were poked! But grins from ear to ear. I think the whole vibe was just plain cool. So many guys enjoying a bit of organised competition on their home soil..

I was driving next to one of the riders in fun class, and was doing about 40km/h the time from the hip jump into DH3, didn't know if he got faster as I had to slow down to a reasonable speed.
