"Tough weekend here in Champery, my first run of the weekend started with a big over the bars, taking a massive body hit, kept me a little sore. Conditions were tough, consistent rain and a track that is not up for World cup numbers, resulted in an all out, sloppy battle, basically survival. No excuses here though. Thanks to ol' Marshy, my bike was more than great the whole weekend, I just slammed some trees in my final run, and got stuck in the mud a few times, finishing 20th. We're off to Val de Sole, Italy in a few days for the next round. I'm sitting 19th in the Overall, patiently waiting for that ripper of a run!"More on World Cup at Champery at Mountain Bike Action — and you'll find video at – Bicycling Magazine
