    July 19, 2012 Dirt Passion Press Release Day One of the Best in the U.S.

    . US Gravity National Championships Well, its finally here the battle for the best in the US started today for the second and final round to be Beech in the Southeast for the first time in more than 10 years. Arguably, the biggest thing on the minds of most was the stars and stripes decorated that coveted annual sleeve. What would we see this year? Who has what to prove to who? Maybe nothing, either way I think its safe to assume it will be interesting.

    The morning started early, with USAC trailers, Gear Vendors, Food Vendors and each of the team with their mad scramble to get set up before the mountain flipped that switch for the lift at high noon. Trailers here, trailers over there, bikes, bike parts, tents, buckets full of gravel, rope, stakes, work-stands, bike racks, you name it was there. Looked like a mound of workers ants. With all of the moisture that has been plaguing the SE region on the past month, and its typically a reoccurring question in the High Country, how would the weather cooperate? Search the weather, all you see is those little clouds with droplets of precip and the word on the mountain is spikes, spikes, spikes. Fast Forward 6 hours after the start of practice and would you believe, a little humid, but nothing but sun, sun, sun. Overnight that did change with thunder-boomers in the distance which brought about 2 hours of rain. From Dirt Passions perspective based on what all the talk was on the Pro course, BRING THE RAIN!...... pointed toward, please wash those greasy rocks off. Day two is the day for the Amateurs to show what skills they got in store for us. First rider down in the race run for Cat2/3 is at 9:15a.m. Yeah, they are Amateurs, but Grassroots is where its at. Weve all been there! Rip it Guys! USACycling Detailed Schedule: http://www.usacycling.org/forms/natchamps/2012/2012-MTBGravityNatzSked.pdf
