222Racing in Willingen and Winterberg

A couple of weeks ago 222Racing went to Willingen and Winterberg in Germany to get up to speed and have fun before the race season started. We rode in Willingen for two days and Winterberg for two days aswell.

Here is a edit from the trip, enjoy!

1st round of the Danish DH cup

This past weekend the first race of the season was held in Rold forest which was the first of 6 rounds. The track is pretty basic with some jumps and berms mixed up with the super loose ground after a few weeks of sunny weather. 222Racing (Bo Andersen and Sebastian Jensen) and 222Freeride (Kasper Nancke and Bjarke Pedersen) meet up saturday for practise.

Saturday practise was good and we all got the dry course dialled in. I was trying out a pair of Maxxis Minion EXO´s since the course isn´t that rough so I would save a bit of weight and time in the end hopefully. Everybody was having fun and catching up after the winter break. Since we do no have any seeding in the Danish DH cup, practise on saturday is always chilled.

On race day the track was rolling fast and was getting quite loose after the practise on saturday. So we got our bikes and geared up and headed up for one hour of practise before the first runs started. We all got a few runs in which we felt good about and was fairly confident on the course.

First up was Kasper who rode a decent run with a few mistakes and ended up in 19th spot with a 1.05,94. Next up was Bjarke on his Scythe who posted a 1.00,01, which he was happy with. Bjarke got a 4th which is quite solid. Last up was myself. My run went well I hit all my lines and I pedaled hard on the flat course. I posted a 56,93 which was the fastest time of the day and therefore good enough for 1st, winning with .4 of a second.

All in all it was a good weekend with happy people and a good vibe. The Banshee Legends and the Scythe was running good all weekend teamed up with the Marzocchi 888´s and the Roco shocks. We also got the chance to flash our new Sombrio kits and the new TLD lids and gloves. Thanks to all of you!

Next weekend 222Racing is going to Winterberg and Willingen in Germany so stay tuned!

Afternoon shoot

Last week my friend Stefan and I went out to shoot some pictures in the frozen forest. He had just got the 7D so he wanted to try it out. So we went out to the local wood to shoot some pictures just before the sunset. It turned out good I think. Enjoy!

Today it got my Banshee AMP which im looking forward to trying! That thing is so light and looks really nimble and flickable. When I get it build up and dialed in I will be sure to post some pictures and a bike check!

First ride!

After the forest was buried in snow from mid november, it has been hard to ride. So today I headed out to my local DH spot. Its only about 30 sekunds long but fun and has a lot of good momories to it. It was quite weird to ride my bike again after two mounths, but it was super sick. The first runs was like if I had to learn to ride again - really funky. But after a few runs I felt home again! It was also one of the first rides on my new Marzocchi 888 RC3 Ti from 2011. That fork is so controlled and super plush! I can wait to get my Marzocchi Roco shock on, when I get my spring for it. Besides the suspension my Legend is running smooth. It can´t wait to see what 2011 might bring!

First ride of ´11 - happy!

2011 is looking to be a good year racing wise so stay tuned for the race schedule!

Pictures from France

Here are some pictures from France. All the pictures are from my trip to 2Alpes and

Morzine/Chatel with the FusionFreeride team in August 2010.

One of Chatels super fun flowy runs.

The famous chute at 2Aples!
