Buffalo Bill Downhill 2012: Quarters, Semis, Consolation and Finals

Posted on October 1, 2012

The 2012 Buffalo Bill Downhill Bloodspill went off last weekend on Lookout Mountain. Once again, an interesting crash made national news. Last year it was a helicopter crashing into the mountain, this time a rider crashed into a deer in the fastest part of the course. Apart from a couple minor hiccups, the event went smoothly and motivated riders got 30 runs in two days.

Rather than running separate women’s, juniors’, and masters’ classes, Justin Dubois, the organizer, created a new “Groms, Girls, and Geezers” class, a welcome development. California up and comers Byron Essert and Chance Gaul took first and second. Canadian old guy Frank “the Tank” Cote came in third.

This video is raw footage of all the open-class racing from the quarterfinals onward. Racing was close and competitive, with miraculous passes and upsets all the way through to the finals. At the end of the day, NorCal wunderkind Byron Essert won both the “Groms, Girls, and Geezers” class and the open class.

As riders and racing fans, we’ll continue to show up to Buffalo Bill as long as DuBois keeps putting it on. Colorado has good style.

Maryhill Festival of Speed 2012 Photos

Posted on September 17, 2012

Mischo Erbahn has one of the best skate-faces in the business and the good sense to rock a clear visor.

Maryhill in all its curvaceous glory. Click through for a much larger version.

Andrew Chapman always has an awesome skate-face.

Chip Wood prefers to hide behind two layers of tinting.

Biker Sherlock showed up and raced. That black on black suit is mighty stylish, if I may say so myself.

The Festival of Speed took a page out of the Freeride rulebook and let this giant pack of dudes get a run. I see Dustin Hampton, Nick Ronzani, Sinjin Davis, Kyle Chin, #MaximGarantRousseau, Will Royce, and a couple dudes I don’t recognize.
