Lopes on the World’s Team, 4 Peat on the A-Line
USA Cycling announced their worlds team yesterday, and Brian Lopes is on it. Not for 4-Cross, which many associate with Brian, but for Downhill. The worlds will be in Australia on September 1st-6th, and Brian says the course suits his skills well.

In other news, Brian has been in Whistler for the last week or so, and after finishing second overall in the Dual Slalom, he managed to WIN the A-Line downhill for the 4th year in a row. Brian won this bike on his Mojo, not on his new prototype Mojo HD. Read the story here, the competition was pretty strong.
Nice work Brian!
