This past weekend marked the official start of the 2005 season at Diablo Freeride Park. Over 800 riders made the trek to Diablo to celebrate opening weekend and compete in the First Round of the Diablo Domination Race Series.This heavily attended east coast event attracted nearly 200 racers from up-and-down the eastern seaboard. In addition, there were many west coast and international racers in attendance preparing for next weekends U.S. Open of Mountain Biking. Many racers fell victim to an extremely technical east coast course. Sam Hill (Team Iron Horse/Matcatz Racing) was clearly up to the challenge and posted the fastest time of the weekend and edged-out fellow team rider Justin Haukainen for the win and the $500USD purse.

Gale Dahlager (Team Go Fast) was the fastest female on the mountain all weekend, she managed to tame the course and lock in the victory for the Pro Women category.

The racing continues this weekend at Diablo Freeride Park, with the widely acclaimed U.S. Open of Mountain Biking… The world’s fastest downhill racers will battle for over $35,000 in cash and prizes and the coveted U.S. Open title.
