Round 2 Vic DH Series – Shepparton

The man of the moment, Dean Lucas has been untouchable this year, quickest time by over 2.5 seconds! Pic SH.

Round 2 of the 2011-12 Victorian DH series was held at Mt Major, located about 30kms outside of Shepparton. The hill used for the race was not the most impressive but due to some very good trail building we still had a 2+ minute track. Saturday conditions were dry and dusty and the track was becoming rougher with every rider. These conditions mixed with the 36 degree heat saw a lot of riders lose concentration and bite the dust, a track that outwardly looks simple enough to ride was actually proving to be quite difficult.

Round 1 of the 2011-12 Victorian DH series was held at You Yangs on track 10, more commonly known as ‘Turbulence’. The track could be described as a flat out blast down a hill with some big jumps and tricky rock sections, not much in the way of tight or technical riding meant that it was going to favour the fitter and stronger riders but still be a lot of fun for everyone else.
