Everything dialed in before the race, lots of visualization. Good food good warm up, and don’t overthink it in the gate!

ANTHONY'S STORY
Anthony Evans started racing downhill mountain bikes in 2003. He’s competitive by nature, but also cautious, so he slowly improved over the years to where he is now. Following a couple of major injuries and a brief hiatus from racing to attend school, Anthony has been training and building up over the last seven years racing professionally to attend his first World Cup. His goals in mountain biking are to continually improve as rider, athlete and person in general.
Once done with racing, Anthony plans on giving back to the mountain bike community he loves with trail advocacy and coaching. You can catch Anthony this summer ripping the trails at Bike Big White!
