SAM HILL IS UNBEILEVABLE….read below

The infamous Garbanzo DH race, a torturous endurance downhill race that only the world’s top riders can finish in under 15 minutes, was run once again in wet conditions. Reigning World Champions Gee and Rachel Atherton took out their respective events by significant margins. Hill took 2nd in typical Sam style - having run off course and somehow lost a shoe in his run, he stopped to put his shoe back on and continued the race, however Atherton’s 17 second margin was simply too big to catch up. Former Junior World Champ, Amiel Cavalier took 6th, with wildman Chris Kovarik in 8th.

1. Gee Atherton 14:20.4
