It was a weekend of warm weather, cool folks, fast race courses and a slow timing company.

It was the first weekend in July, and Rocky Mountain gravity racers got their first taste of a new format: two days, three runs, fastest combined time wins. After a long weekend and a whole lot of downhill, everyone agreed: G3 is sweet indeed.

What a great weekend: Three days of riding Sol Vista’s new DH trails, plus a little trip to watch Big Air at Crankworx.

There’s a first for everything, and the first G3 race was pretty darn cool. Three burly courses and lots of great racing.

Steve Wentz, Mike Moga and TJ Sharp have been working hard at this small resort near Winter Park, CO. Last Saturday, 81 downhillers tried the new trails — and they were stoked! The lift will be running for free this weekend. If you’re up for Crankworx, come on by.

We’re in the process of finalizing, naming and signing the trails. Here are trail descriptions from Steve:

After another fantastic weekend at Darner’s ranch, the reports are getting repetitive: fine weather, fun courses, great people, peak experiences, yada yada yada.

Real quick ’cause I’m leaving for Sea Otter …

Just returned from three days of bike riding, moto riding and business meetings. Ripping singletrack is the new golf. Today is tired but happy.

I’ve been trying not to become a motorcycle racer, but I suppose it was inevitable. Today, almost a year after I bought my Honda trail bike, I raced a hare scramble. And I liked it.

The bike park is a wild success, with 25-35 riders visiting each non-snowy weekend day. The dream goal was 40 a week, so this is a great sign. Last week a vanload of us went up for a little photo shoot. This track is so rad.

When the trails are snowy, we cruise 40 minutes up I-25 to the Berthoud motocross complex. In addition to the main race track, there are several smaller tracks and a dozen little “pump tracks.”

Sure, it snowed over a foot earlier this week. But it’s been sunny for the past few days, and our boy Gregor is visiting from New York City. Snow be damned; we had to check out the trails.

Last Saturday was the first official session. Snowflakes flew, but a couple dozen riders had a great time.

Another series in the books. The Keystone gravity events saw new faces having new fun and old faces enjoying new success. Good stuff as always.
