Harz 2010 - Trip 2 - part 2/3.

Well we gave our best shot at the Hahnenklee Bikepark as well. The good thing about this park is that its really easy to session. Its very forgiving and does not require any crazy skills - a good beginner bikepark you might say. That said, its so damn fun! We had such a blast there Saturday and Sunday! We quickly found our favorite trail, a combination of the Freeride trail, and the DH trail. Here are some shots:

Remember to enlarge the pics, the quality is sick.

The park offers some fun drops, this particular drop has a very gnarly run-in, and its only gotten "worse" since last year, it actually takes some time to master it.

Martin landing a small jump, he actually managed to destroy some of the Northshore equipment in the Park, now that takes skills : )

Ok, guess I cant hide it any longer, I'm on a new bike, well frame to be precise.. Notice the lack of "Specialized" prints on the frame..

Lars was riding his Zesty, It got taken to its very limits, perhaps a bit beyond as well, it somehow survived tho'.

Out of a berm, and into a small jump, as fast as possible. We had a few cat&mouse runs, and I have to be honest that it spawned the most enjoyable and fastest runs.

Kim rented a brand new (like, never ridden before) DH bike at the Hahnenklee bike shop. He was very pleased about it, so much that he ended up destroying it.
