Add to my Favorites

Chris Kovarik backs up his 1st round win of the Fontana winter downhill series with another win in round 2 over 4X winner and local seasoned pro Eric Carter. Kovarik said "it had rained all night before the race and in the morning we were greeted with sun and a loamy track.
The minute pedal at the bottom didn't get me as bad this time so I can save the vomit for another time, ha".

Chris' winter training is going good and racing these winter races is getting him ready for the up coming World Cup series. Chris will pick up his new Chain Reaction Cycles team color Intense M6 this week so look out for CK on his new bike and gear at round 3 in a few weeks time.

I'm watching Chris to do some big things this year. 2008 may just be a big transitional year in WC all around, but I think Kovarik is gonna see some podiums.
