On September 2nd, we had our final downhill series race of the season, the Livewire Classic!

The Livewire Classic was yet another fun-filled day on one of our favorite trails. We had a couple extra age groups as well as a chain-less race to finish off the day.

 "Racer special" not really special at all - just get an order of fish tacos and a (very generous) basket of fries and share with a buddy. Cheaper than two racer specials.

Cool event though. Will be back next year!
