Latvia! Thank you, Baldone, for a brilliant day of racing, massive support, and some pump track love. Along with the BTA Pump Track and Latvian Champs, it turned out to be a huge day with over 200 riders across the various disciplines and age categories. In the Women’s category, the current World no 3 Vineta Petersone made no mistakes in securing her ticket to the World Final in a cracking time of 14.662. After a difficult season for her so far on the injury front, it sure is good to see her on the top step of the podium again. 2nd place on the podium went to Kitija Dzelzīte.
Helvijs Babris is back with the goods after his first pump track win in 2018 in Estonia. He took the gold today in a time of 13.448 against Latvian, MTB rider Edgars Melnalksnis' time of 13.853 in the final run.
Men:
1. Helvijs Babris
