Today was a leap into the unknown for the Superenduro team - there aren't many races where the organisers are as nervous as the racers. They know what they're doing when it comes to putting a race, everything was in place, the course was good, qualifying went well... but what was going to happen when the racing started? There was only one way to find out and it was a seven o'clock start to make sure everything was ready at the top of the mountain.
So there we go. Supermountain has it's first set of victors, there are some broken bikes and bodies here in Limone Piemonte tonight and the general feeling is that this was a great race. Changing format didn't phase the slick organisation of the Superenduro team and the series will be back in September at one of the most popular spots on the European DH scene - Pila. Until then...
