LSD in Koninki
LSD stands for a Local Series of Downhill, which is an annual series of downhill bike mountain competitions.
When on Saturday evening on the 43ride page I found information about the two-day long LSD competition in Koninki near Krakow, I immediately loaded the batteries into the charger: you can photograph sport again! I prepared myself as if I was going to mountain hike: good shoes, a backpack and water, lots of water. It was oing to be hot at the weekend, and the best spots are usually up the hill, often in the forest.
And I was right. The track was reserved for contestants, and I had to wade steep climbs and break through the thicket. However, the prize was exceptional emotions built by cyclists rushing among the trees. Madness! I was photographing alone, because only a handful of supporters decided to climb. And those who went up the hill quickly dispersed along the entire length of the track.
Followig LSD events are coming later this year:
- July 18-19 in Zawoja
- September 26-27 in Wisla
- October 03-04 at Zar mnt.
See you there?
