The 6th Annual Bentonville Bike Fest is done and dusted (as the Brits say)! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kenny and the BBF team moved the event to June this year to avoid the storms that plagued the 2025 and 2024 events. Unfortunately, the week started with tornado warnings nearby early on Monday morning and ended with more on Saturday morning. Thankfully, though, those storms only sent rain to the BBF venue and the sky cleared by midday. We had beautiful sunny weather Tuesday to Thursday but the chance of rain came back on Friday and Saturday. Another change to the schedule was that the overall festival has grown so much and added more events like the Redbull Double Down, they had to shift some things around. This put the NA Trials Championship and UCI C1 Semifinals on Friday and the C1 Finals on Saturday. In the end, this worked out great because it allowed the spectators to enjoy the trials without conflicting with other events. It also allowed the amateur classes to start at 11am and finish by 2pm so that several of the competitors could serve as judges for the Elite semi finals, 3:30-5:30pm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weather for the finals on Saturday looked imposing early in the day but cleared by the afternoon. The Elite Women’s Final went first with Vera Baron cleaning every section, though, not without some challenges. She said she really enjoyed the sections. Due to the live streams on Facebook and OutsideTV, the Elite Men’s Final started immediately following the women. Dani Cegarra and Eloi Palau kept their scores tightly together for the whole final while Alejandro Montalvo seemed effortless in his domincance. His two 50s were only due to running out of time in the long, difficult sections set by Wes Belaey and his friend Andy Masschelin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most significant aspect of this year’s event is that it was the first time in history that an American made it into UCI Elite Men’s Final. Sean Farrar not only won the NATC Elite title again, he made history. Congratulations Sean!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As always, this event would not be possible without the dedicated help from my team: Gal, Freddy, Jeff, Robbie, Phil, Jim, Robert, Ryan, Natalie, and Caleb. My deepest thanks to each and every one of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
