Maribor WC

On Sunday was the first DH World Cup of the 2008 season at Maribor in Slovenia.

We sent two of our riders; Yannick and Sophie along to compete, more for the experience than anything, as they are both new to the World Cup circuit, and they don’t get much more challenging than this.

At the end of the weekend Yannick finished a solid 85th,  which makes him 7th in Junior

Sophie fared less well, as her hand was still very painful after her fall last week. She still finished 27th in Womens though.

Both riders are reported to be very happy with the new 2008 evolution Shockwave, and they are now heading to Valnord in Andorra for the 2nd round!
