Photos and highlights from Leogang’s 26 Trix

Rain didn't dampen the spirits of Europe's top dirt jumpers

Our focus may have been directed towards the World Cup last weekend but we weren’t going to miss Europe’s best dirt jumpers throwing down at the adjacent 26 TRIX competition.

26 Trix is probably one of the most scenic dirt jump competitions going with the stunning Austrian mountains forming the background to its huge jumps. Unfortunately the event was weather affected so the results from qualifying were used to decide the victor. The riders sensed this would be the case though and brought their A-games in the evening sunlight.

At the end of the day it was Italy’s Diego Caverzasi who took the win with Antoine Bizet second and Medhi Gani in third. Here all the best snaps from one of the most picturesque dirt jump competitions going.
