Video: 2013 Chilean National Championships
The rain gods gifted this to us
Maybe you remember Berny Pizarro (ex Cannondale US Team "Bear Naked" rider), she is back again after a long break.
Rodrigo Farias at the start
On Sunday came the big day and the weather could not be better. A great sun and incredible views boded well for an excellent race. The track conditions were perfect for cornering.
The most serious injury was Samir Dinamarca, a young junior rider, who had a strong fall, to whom we wish a speedy recovery.
Gustavo Ortiz becomes the new junior national champion, and the recent Pan American champion, Mauricio Acuna takes the 2013 National Elite Championships.

Final Podium, Mauricio take the championship with a time of 3:04

That rock garden looked wicked. I loved the slow mow shot when you could see the riders wheel bending and twisting through that section.

That ladder drop into berm looks so much fun. Overall, great riding, filming, and the course looks great. For some reason, it reminds me of Fontana...
