The Moe and I made our annual trip to Tehachapi, CA for the second leg of the 2010 California Golden State Kenda Downhill Championships. This year it appears that it will only be the two of us as our other teammates were not able to make it. After a 3hr drive from my house we arrive at Woodward West just as practice started. Weather was a cool 60 degrees, quite the opposite from last year. As a matter of fact there is still snow at the mountain just behind the venue.
The Moe armored and ready for practice.
My sled for this race is my new bike an Intense Uzzi. I finished the build late last night, just in time for our trip.
After registration The Moe and I briefly walked the course. We were surprised to see our teammate Wes “GQ†Castro. He was at the top part of the course taking pictures and video.
We had a total of four practice runs. The course is totally different from last year’s – it has rock gardens, berms, table tops, off-camber turns and a ladder. Totally FUN!!!

The Moe and I have a new approach on racing. We will attempt to bring intensity to our game and hope to do well tomorrow. Wish us luck!
Woo hoo! Way to represent boys! Have a great time and good luck! 😀
Great pics. Wish I could be there.
