They're baaaaack! Jared Graves and Tracey Hannah qualified fastest during the opening round of the Australian National DH series.
Both riders have announced their intention to make a big push in the DH race scene in 2012. These results show they mean business. Note that Tracey outpaced the women's field by nearly 40 seconds!
Weather at the event is cold and rain may arrive any minute. We'll have a video and final results from the event early next week.

Ben Cory has to be one of the most under-rated Aussie riders ever.
Has Rennie finally given it away?

@NoahColorado Maybe I'm looking at different results than you, but ~39s looks like a pretty strong winning margin to me...
