The Pro GRT’s first stop is this weekend in Port Angeles and the tracks are all ready. If you race DH, get there!
Round 1 of the NW Cup went off without a hitch despite record turn-out. Racing was tight, and our friends to the north walked away with more than their fair share of best times. Here’s a little recap vid.
And now, just three weeks later, it’s about to go off! New tracks, new vendors, new finish area, new podium, etc will guarantee a good time for all and some great racing. Add to that the most stacked Pro Class turnout in the US including some names familiar to us all, and a Strength In Numbers/raffle party and how could you miss it?

We went quite far out to find and ride this zone! To maximize the potential of getting that first morning light camping was clearly our best option. On a typical shoot it would normal to have to wake up at some god awful time in the morning racing to the zone to send it for the morning light. Hitting the first lines visibly tired and trying to wake up with are hands still asleep. It’s always interesting trying to hold on to the handle bars at first light. It was great being able to camp out right on top of some of our lines allowing us to spend more time waiting for just that perfect moment when the light went, Bam! The vibe of camping goes well with freeriding and the memories from any camp trip are priceless. This trip was so much fun and turns the trip in a journey that enhances the experience for the crew. It’s not just about getting the shots it’s about leaving all the distractions behind and feeling free while you’re sending it!
