Markus Pekoll is Austrian Downhill Champ 2010

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

After winning the Austrian championships in Innsbruck in 2008, Markus started with lots of pressure and expectation into this year`s championships. Qualification went great with a clear margin of 13 seconds. During training on sunday, the track was demanding because of the strong rain. Markus was surely benefitting from these conditions.

During the final race itself conditions changed, the track was dry again but still catchy.
After a fault in the 1. part of the track, Markus later grazed a tree, what shifted helmet and goggle and let him fly blind into the champ title with a margin of 0.023 seconds only.

Congratulation Markus, a great closure of a perfect season.

3 TSG medals at the MTB DH European Championships

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010

MTB DH European Championships in Hafjell Norway 2010Nick Beer, Markus Pekoll and Floriane Pugin ended up on the podium in Hafjell, Norway.

The riders were having lots of fun on a track with good flow after the super technical tracks of the last two weeks.

The qualifier on friday was held in pouring rain, but the finals luckily in the sun.

Floriane Pugin won the silver medal only just 0.36 seconds behind her french compatriot Miriam Nicole. Emilie Siegenthaler came in fourth.

Nick Beer also won the silver medal, behind the surprisingly fast Robin Wallner from Sweden. Nick is happy getting a smooth run down after a few difficult races.

Following up his success in Val di Sole, Markus Pekoll came in third with a great run!

Congratulations to our riders!

Val Di Sole DH World Cup review

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

Back from Val Di Sole. Our team rider Floriane Pugin of the Scott 11 team ended up on the podium with a great 5th place. Her team mate Emilie Siegenthaler is back on speed after her injury and finished the race on 9th place.

And our newest Downhill team addition the Austrian Markus Pekoll came in 9th.

BELOW IS THE OFFICIAL RACE REPORT OF THE SCOTT 11 TEAM:

A rather difficult weekend with little disappointments at the mens race still brought SCOTT11 closer to the top position in the team ranking.

Again, it was Floriane Pugin which was responsible for the collection of the most points for her team. With the fifth place, she added another podium to her palmares and kept SCOTT11 on the second overall spot.

Emilie Siegenthaler is back on speed after her injury and finished the race on 9th place.

Fabien Pedemanaud kept himself in the overall top ten with an almost inhuman effort. His incredible will and several roles of tape around his injured shoulder kept him on the bike on the roughest course of the year. Fabien finished in 28th spot and is now sitting in 10th overall position.

Nick Beer wasn’t able to attack as hard as he wanted to, trying to make sure not to crash again. A 21st spot brought him to the 19th overall.

Nick, Emilie, Floriane and Freddy are now flying to Norway for the European Championships, while Fabien is already on the way home to treat his shoulder for the most important races of the year in Windham (NY) and Mont Sainte Anne, Kanada.
