The last Psychosis.
Posted by: Claire
The B Labs van cleaned up again this year at the last Red Bull Psychosis ever.
And to wrap up the last year of the event, it was a gnarly one. You know it's gnarly when the fastest riders in the world can't go slow enough or they will die. The rain came and it became almost un-rideable in sections and there were heli-evacs and other extractions on different sections of the 4,000 ft vertical/14km track. There were wrists, legs, arms, ribs and collar bones. All of us ate dirt at least a hand full of times but the best was when I was winded in the bushes and I heard this decrepit, "are you ok?' and it was Morland a few bushes down from me. Haha! Anyways, it ended up drying out till it was pretty much ideal conditions and we survived. I took it for the women, Chris was 1st setting a new track record and Tyler was not far behind in 3rd place. And there was a Chromag podium again for the hardtail class. A successful weekend! Here are some results:
