Sweet!

There is enough awesome looking sections to make the trip look worthwhile, but also enough lame sections to comfort me for not going....

How was the track overall?

from Bikeradar:
Beer said: "This is an amazing track, it suits me well. It has steep parts, some technical sections and fast straight parts. I made a mistake on top but I somehow pulled it off in the end."

The top part of the track was steep and semi technical, but then it got flat. It was very phisically demanding, lots of berms. Lots of pedaling to the finish line. But racers were generally pleased with the track and they were enjoying it.
Organisation was really good.
...Ben Ried flatted rear tire, Ivan Oulego crashed and then also got flat tire. Not sure what happend to Dan Stanbridge and Tom Braithwait. Sabrina Jonier crashed at the fast left hander at the exit of the first woods and then finished 10th.
Maribor next week and then week after 4x European champs - again in Slovenia!

I raced in Junior Open...

It was definitely the gnarly...
