Another Solid Weekend for Maxxis-Rocky Mountain at Leogang World Cup #3
Source: Rocky Mountain Bicycles
Another World Cup and another two podium placings for Team Maxxis-Rocky Mountain this past weekend at Leogang.
Sabrina Jonnier who is used to being on the top step of the podium has been forced to contend with an injury (bruised tailbone), choosing to compete rather than stay at home. As a result, she hasn?t been able to ride at her usual level, managing a 4th in South Africa and a 5th at Fort William. Great results, but not when you?ve won eight World Cups and two World Cup overall titles in the last two seasons.
Ruaridh Cunningham has been riding consistently since the beginning of the season and finished a very respectable 25th in the final at Leogang. His goal for the year is a top 20 overall placing and he is well on the way to achieving that goal.
Junior DH ripper Mark Scott has been having an excellent year with the team so far and qualified 38th out of 272 riders at Leogang. The 18 year old UK rider finshed 46th overall, but 3rd Junior behind the USA?s Neko Mulally and Australia?s Troy Brosnan. All eyes will be on Mark in September to see what he can pull off at World Championships in Champery.
Next stop, Mont St Anne!
