Yoann Barelli Back to Racing EWS - Practice Day 1
You asked for it, so here we are !!!
Racing the EWS round 4 here in Whistler this weekend, I’m super excited.
A bit of a shock to the system dropping in, in the morning and feeling the electric vibe of the race again, top riders checking lines, attacking right away and seeing the pace of them all was a pure blast!!
We practiced 4 stages yesterday, some wet tracks, full of roots made it pretty interesting, the weather looks great now so the tracks will be mostly dry by Sunday.
This morning we practice stage 5, that will be the pro stage, and we race it this afternoon. We are riding the whole new Steve Smith memorial DH track for a bit and back in the bike park. Excited to check it out and to show you what it’s all about.
EWS is no joke, it’s hard, it’s intense, it’s demanding and requires all the commitment you have.
Let’s go, LET’S GET IT!!
Big thank you to my help crew this weekend, Liam, Burke, Jen, mama and my kiddos ❤️
