Well, I just got home from a fantastic weekend in Wanaka! The weather was perfect and I had a great time shooting the Urban DH race on Saturday. Once again the Urban DH was a super-fun, well-organised event with an amazing turn-out in terms of both competitors and spectators.
120 riders this year, which is awesome! And just like last year, the vibe at this event was really nice - fun, friendly and relaxed! There was a huge range of ages, ability levels and bikes - and everybody was smiling, just having a great time. The crowd cheered just as hard for the little girl who carried her bike down the stairs, as it did for some of NZ's fastest downhill racers. I was stoked to once again be a part of such a great event! Thanks to Dan at Freeride NZ for organising this "race"! For those of you who haven't experienced the Wanaka Urban DH yet I have included a couple of photos that will hopefully give you a little taste of what it's all about...
