Additional Race notes

- We spoke with Dan Atherton (Animal Commencal) earlier today, who was sporting a sling on his right arm. He suspects a broken scapula, but hopes to be back for Worlds in Canberra, Australia.  He suffered the same injury on the other shoulder earlier in the season and was back racing in 3 weeks.


-  It appears that downhiller Matti Lehikoinen (Evil Bikes) broke his collarbone and hip during the DH on Saturday, likely ending his season.


- We reported yesterday that Geoff Kabush's win was the first World Cup win for a Canadian man since Ryder Hesjedal won at Les Gets France in 2003, but it was actually 2002 that Ryder won.
