It's a good thing we have MTB Mania around and their impressive coverage despite a small crew, because without them there would be absolutely no coverage of this race. The race happened almost 2 days ago (not to mention qualifying) and I still can't find any results posted. Not like this was one of the seven biggest races in the country or anything.
Seriously, how are we supposed to grow downhill racing in the U.S. if no one even knows it's happening?
Preach brother! USAC needs to continue to step up it's game on the ProGRT promotion and information. The people want to know results, qualifying results, etc. The series has been trending positively, and hopefully it keeps going in a positive direction.
MTB mania is totally killing it by giving us race coverage!
It's absolutely ridiculous. The Cali Enduro was posted Monday, BC provincials posted next day, ProGRT...? Crickets. This kind of treatment of the DH scene in the US is embarrassing and unprofessional by USA Cycling, the race venues, and honestly all of us who care about DH in the US and don't gun for better representation and exposure.
@truehipster & @aaoliver: we always post our stuff the same day. Friday has practice vids, Sat has qually vids & Sunday has a finals vid. It's up on Youtube & FB fastest so check those out.
Hey Mtn Mania, nice job on covering the races, but a suggestion if I may? Show the race highlights/results in descending order, show a highlight of the last podium or noteworthy racer and finish with the fastest of the category. It's pretty anticlimactic starting with the fastest and finishing with the slowest, especially if we're seeing the results for the first time in your recap video. Either way, keep up the good work!

Neer's running the switch infinity test-sled, not a 303
