Photo Epic: NotARace Day 2 - iXS Cup Test Session
Still not a race, still going fast on the second day: the invited riders of NotARace.
After a night of heavy rainfalls the track has gotten washed out in some parts. No problem for Andreas Kolb simply picking a new higher line.
With the track drying up somewhat throughout the day, some of the grip returned. Melanie Chappaz riding for Hope Technology leaving behind the small step in her roost. Who hits the corner best? Melanie ...
... Commencal/100%'s Greg Williamson ...
... YT Racing Dudes' Erik Irmisch ...
... SRAM TLD Racing's Vali Höll ...
... or Markus Pekoll, who swapped his e-bike for his downhiller on day two.
