Sporting a brand new set of trails, the PBP (Paganella Bike Park), on a hot July day hosted the DH Race # 3 Danger Zone regional downhill race.
Throughout the weekend the riders became familiar with the race track on Saturday and many have also taken the opportunity to check the trail of other PBPs.
Sunday morning check cards, mandatory tests and immediately after the lunch break, at 13.30 the first of two races planned.
The race starts right away with a shudder, the first rider off got the entry wrong into the Federica Zanotto road gap, landing badly. After a few moments of anxious waiting, he got up and just under an hour later, the road gap was closed.
The rest of the race flew by, interspersed with music from the timely information of exceptional speakers, Barbara Pedrotti, who has accepted this challenge for a "return to roots".
The Danger Zone ASD Racing Team took the honors with a massive presence of its riders throughout the weekend, and with the excellent performance of Rosa Carpano (1 Cat), Martin Stefani (3 Cat), Louis Malfer (2 Cat), Mark Dorigatti (2 Cat), and in particular Stefan Laimer (1 Cat) who dominated his category and also the fastest amateur, continuing his strong performance this season.
For helping organise of the event, we thank the main sponsors Nuke Proof, Contour, POC, and support Trentingrana Mezzacorona Cellars, PBP staff collaboration, Mountain Rescue and all those who assisted in the organisation of the event, and in particular the City of Fai and spa facilities Paganella 2001.
