Parnitha: "Elevator" Gravity Cup race - 25-4-2012

After many lessons on Parnitha soil we finally got a race here.

Some of our best downhill students: Irini , Sakis and Stergios took part in the race with me (Alessio).
Irini was the only female racing and she left many boys behind !  First podium for her and we really hope to see some competitors next time! C'mon girls come and race! 

Sakis and Ste did well and enjoyed the race. Showing some good style at the last big jump!

I had a good qualification run in the 6th place. I decided to give a shot for the podium pushing the Commencal Meta as hard as I could, but I pushed to much and crashed in an high speed turn and I ended up with the 44th position. It will be better next time for me, but I proved that the Meta is a bike that can do everything.  






The race was a lot of fun an easy trail that gave everybody the possibility to race, the organization was maybe the best we ever had in Greece being on schedule even if were racing more than 150 riders. 
Special thanks to Arteliz for the good photos! we just need you at every event !! Respect !

We can't wait for more Gravity Cup races!
