I just got back from a quick trip to Seattle, Washington for the final stop of the U.S. Grand Prix of MTB. After crashing at the previous round at Highland and missing out on points, I needed a 1st or 2nd place to take the series overall from my teammate Justin Leov. The track was extremely dry and loose, and there were several top guys there. Luke Stroble would be hard to beat on his home track, Mitch Ropelato was riding fast after a good result in France and Bryn Atkinson was on form as he spends his summers in Seattle. I felt like I figured it out and put down a good run in the final, but after qualifying 2nd, Mitch and Luke got me in the final and I took 3rd. It was disappointing to miss out on the series overall, but the racing was very close and I put in my best effort. I felt like figured out the loose dust this weekend and I'm really looking forward to going to Crankworx in Whistler next weekend.
