Complete results for yesterday‚s Downhill Championships can be found Here. Thanks to S.T.A.T. Timing for their assistance.

In other Nationals news, last night‚s Nite Drag (literally, a two-up drag race series on grass over a 300 M course with a jump at the end) was a great success - enlivened in part by the nude competitors (they were wearing helmets, so technically they were within the rules...).
