DH Race Results #3
We were lucky again with the weather for the 3rd race in the 2016 RCA Downhill Toonie Race series presented by Flowt Bikes. After the first two, less technical races, 21 racers moved to the roots and steeps of Boondocker and Gravy Bacon. After rain for a few days, there was enough sunshine to make the dirt nice and grippy, a contrast from the grease a couple days prior, and the dust fest of last year. This made for some fast times, with Nadine Overwater making it out for her first race of the year and putting down a speedy time of 3:05:57. Kate Devine also put in a strong time of 3:40:25 for a second place finish, moving to second overall in the standings, and Jamie Marshall pulled into first place in the overall with consistent podium finishes at every race. On the Men's side, Luke Stevens made a blistering RCA Toonie Debut, winning with a time of 2:20:91, nearly 12 seconds faster than second place finisher Nathan Jecks. With the complete absence of Dom Unterberger, who won the first two rounds, Nathan pulled into a narrow lead over Henning Schipper for the series overall. Thanks to all the racers and volunteers for another fun event, and we'll see you in September for Race #4 on Redneck's Revenge!2016SeriesStandings
