It should come as no surprise that Aaron Gwin was fastest in qualifying today. After all, he loves high speed, loose and dusty tracks being from Southern California. Danny Hart and Troy Brosnan rounded out the top 3 starting 3.6 back from Gwin. What is mind blowing is that Rachel Atherton Qualified almost 13 seconds ahead of Manon Carpenter. She’s next level for sure…Great to see Miranda Miller in the mix just behind in 3rd. Finn Iles cruised into first place for the men’s juniors, continuing his consistent streak and heading towards a rainbow jersey…Enjoy the photos below and scroll to the bottom to find the full results.
