Paul Whibley Race Report: Mountaineer Run GNCCSeptember 27, 2017Conditions were a little warmer than the NZ winter we have just come out of, but I’d rather it stinky hot than freezing cold any day!

Ryan Sipes Race Report: Mountaineer Run GNCCSeptember 26, 2017The Mountaineer GNCC is always a tough race. It's one of our rockiest venues, and it also seems to be dusty every year, so when you combine those two it gets tricky. Even so, while it isn't one of my favorites, I've rode well there in the past.
Team UXC Race Report: Mountaineer RunSeptember 26, 2017After a much depleted Unadilla race, the team were back to full strength with all of their machines and racers as UTVs are back in action! Marvin’s Mountain Top of West Virginia welcomed Team UXC and the racing nation family. The weather was hot and there wasn’t a sign of rain anywhere, which was thankful given the rocky nature of this track. Early track walks showed that the boulders and rocks were still big, the dust was going to be a factor and it was going to test rider and machine to the limit.
