After years of dreaming about World Cup Racing, Lars Sternberg is getting the chance to test his metal against the worlds best riders. Lars’ trip started with a flight to New Mexico for the Angel Fire CORPS series race in New Mexico, where he had a very strong fourth place showing in the DH against a stacked field.

From there, Lars flew to Barcelona to meet up with fellow Fluidride/Virtual Descent team riders Sven and Anka Martin. The trio then headed to Andorra for this weekends World Cup race. The riders will continue on to Fort William and then to Italy for the World Championships.

A special thanks goes out to Fox Racing for helping make Lars’ trip possible; thanks Fitzy and Elayna! Dave Weagle also made a very nice contribution to the trip through e-thirteen; thanks Dave! Thanks also go out to Iron Horse, Crank Brothers, Maxxis, Sunline, Red Bull, Troy Lee Designs, SDG and Shimano for their amazing support. This trip wouldn’t have been possible without all the great people behind these companies. Stay tuned for updates from Lars, Anka, and Sven as they travel Europe. Good luck guys!
