At the second race of the Southridge Winter Series I raced and won downhill in the Junior Expert class on my Chumba F5. The course this week was reasonably quick, but high speeds and epic dirt made for a good time. In the top section of the course the turns were flat and required a smooth tracking rear end and precision brake control. My Chumba F5 performed beautifully, and took the turns like a champ.
Along my way to the infamous "wall", there were a few nice sized drops and g-outs, but thanks to the bottomless feel of the rear end on my F5, I hardly noticed them. When I got down to the pedal section I was on the cranks like white on rice and took home the win by three seconds over second place Brad King. My time would have set me for Sixth in Pro Men, less than Eight seconds off of Gee Atherton, the Pro winner. Results from the race can be found at southridgeusa.com
Every time I push my F5 to what I think is the edge, it just keeps inching out the limit for how hard I can ride. I can't thank you guys enough for making such a great bike that takes has pushed me to the level I am today. Now after this win I am one step closer to me short-term goal of Sea Otter Champion.
Thanks a Ton for the Awesome Bike,
Adam Digby
