Coralillo, First Race of Veracruz State Series

Emil F, Javier Rojas and Michel

After two years of being absent, the Veracruz Mountain Biking Association inaugurates the 2011 XCO State Series. This race, two weeks before our first national race, was an excellent opportunity to test form and fitness and to continue our preparation for race intensity. Unfortunately, Emil F. and Michel were the only children competing, so they raced in the adult race course, two and one laps respectively. They both received a medal for the 2010 season and this race.

The race track, although short, had great quality, with a little bit of everything; good climbs, single track, fast and technical descents, etc. Emil gets first place in Master 40. The performance of the team is on schedule.

We were very happy to see most of our cycling friends, including the Tejones from Puebla. In two weeks, Valle de Bravo, first National XCO  Series race.
