National Championships

After a refreshing two weeks home from Europe, I spent the past weekend in North Carolina for the U.S. National Championships. It was a really fun time, the riding was good and Aaron and I had a lot of fun hanging out. I raced duel slalom for the first time all season and finished 2nd to Mitch Ropelato in a close race. The crowds were huge, it was awesome to have that support. It was really cool to race slalom again and it made for a fun evening of riding. The downhill track was really muddy for the final, which was good for us east coast boys. I was forced to race junior by USA Cycling rule, but I still set the fastest time of the day by any rider. It was a good weekend, I managed to win a national title, grab a silver medal in slalom and be the fastest man in the country on the downhill track. Now that it's really the off season, I'm gonna ride motorcycles for a few days down here in NC with my friends and have some fun.
