New York gravity race series happening this weekend

Round two of the New York State Championship downhill series and round one of the dual slalom series will happen at Plattekill Bike Park in Roxbury, New York, this weekend, June 13-14.

Thanks to trail preparation of a few weeks, organizers have a professional / category one downhill course in the classic Northeast US style, with drops, roots, steep chutes, berms and a few pieces of shale. Category two and three racers will try their legs on a separate track with berms and kickers.

Racers also tackling the dual slalom will get an entry fee discount of US$10.

In addition to the racing action, the movie "Right Coast Rippers" by VonCooper Productions will premier during the weekend.
