CEDRIC GRACIA: RACE READY
Race season is upon us, and there’s no better world-class athlete than the legendary Cedric Gracia to share some wisdom and experience to help get you race ready. With decades of racing under his belt at the highest level, Gracia has an endless amount of knowledge concerning travel, preparation and mental focus. So as part of our month-long Race Ready campaign, we asked him a few questions to get further insight from his time circling the globe racing downhill, 4-cross and enduro.
"Time is a lot shorter when you know your bike really well, and working with a great mechanic really helps."
Q1: Over the years, you’ve raced in many different disciplines, from four-cross to downhill and more. How did you prepare for different events (tapering, bike adjustments, etc.) and how did you manage switching from one discipline to another effectively?
