MTB index page for all MTB content National Mountain Bike Series #2 (NMBS) - 2Fountain Hills, Arizona, USA, April 4-6, 2008Main Page Results Overall standings Previous Race Next Race Race 2 - April 4: Super D Time Trial (all categories)Gould attacks the power courseBy Dave McElwaine in Fountain Hills, Arizona Georgia Gould (Luna MTB Team) barely edged team-mate Katerina Nash for the race win at McDowell Mountain Park with a time of 18:20.20. Nash was only two second back at 18:22.50. Wendy Simms, who has dramatically improved her racing this year, was third with a time of 18:27.60 Tom Spiegle, of Team Big Bear, is the inventor of the super D discipline and frequently changes how the racers start. At Fountain Hills he abandoned the normal Le Man's start in favour of starting racers at ten second intervals. This would assure that there would be some exciting high speed passes on the course, less drafting, and make the event more of a time trial. The course was long, approximately 7 miles, and consisted entirely of fire roads. The gradient was mild so racers were forced to pedal nearly the entire distance without coasting. Sand was the biggest danger that faced the racers, particularly in the dozen washes where it was very easy to get off line and crash. The final mile featured two climbs, followed by a tortuous hill and false flat to the finish line. This course which required lots of power negated the technical and downhill skills that usually win super D races. Kelli Emmette (Giant), who won the Super D at Fontana finished 8th. U.S. National Champion Rachael Lloyd was not present. Kabush wins with a strong performanceGeoff Kabush (Team Maxxis) made it two wins in this NMBS season by crushing a strong men's field with a time of 15:55.30. He was followed by a resurgent Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski (Subaru/ Gary Fisher) at 16:13.90, and Ryan Trebon (Kona) at 16:20.50 who is still making his way back from injuries sustained during the cyclo-cross season. The 7 mile course at McDowell Mountain Park consisted entirely of sandy fire roads, loose washes, and finished with three significant climbs in the last mile. The time trial format had racers depart the starting line at 10 second intervals. With 330 racers (pro and amateur), this was the largest super D event every held. This was due to the fact that racers could not sign up for just one event of the weekend. They were required to race the entire stage race. U.S National Champion Adam Craig (Giant) finished fourth, but there was not nearly enough technical challenges to give him any advantage. Young Sam Schultz (Gary Fisher/Suburu) made his second podium in this young NMBS season by taking fifth place. He will be heading shortly to the World Cup races in Europe where he is expected to be in the competition for the two Olympic mountain biking spots. Absent from Fountain Hills were Jeremiah Bishop, Chris Etough, Sue Haywood, and Jenny Smith (all of Trek/VW) who have been racing the Cape Epic in Africa. Also absent were Michael Broderick (Kenda/Seven), Sam Jurekovic (U-23 National Team), and Todd Wells (GT) who are racing in the Pan Am Championships in Venezuela this weekend.
