Kimber Gabryszak

Race Category: Pro: Downhill/Super D/Dual Slalom/4x
Beginner: XC
Road: Cat 4

Residence: Park City, UT (grew up in Alaska and migrated here 3+ years ago)

Resume: 2006, 3rd Place NMBS Overall, Downhill Expert Women 19-29
2007 will be my first season racing Pro!!!

Other sport(s): Skeleton. Ranked 14th Nationally, and on the US National Team.

Bikes: Kona Stab = Downhill
Witchdoctor = Slalom / 4X
Raleigh XXIX = 29er singlespeed, for training and fun

Bikes I want: Kona Coilair Supreme (insert drool here) for a trail bike…
Schwinn Evolution SR spinning bike - for wintertime training.

$$$ for bike habit: Full time employment as a City Planner, part time job at a local bike shop, and tutoring sports here and there.

Best time on a bike: The flowing “in the zone” feeling of a great downhill run. Banking the corners, holding speed, dancing down the trail, landing drops, hearing nothing. Oh, and passing the boyz, wink.

Worst time on a bike: Climbing a hill in 90 degree weather, having an asthma attack.

Favorite XC trail(s): Porcupine system, Moab UT. Mid-Mountain, Park City UT. Wasatch Crest, Wasatch Mtns UT.

Best crashes/injuries: Acting as a cushion for my bike in Barney Rubble, a rocky section of the Deer Valley UT NMBS Expert/Pro course, on video of course. Breaking a rib in the Snowmass NMBS Slalom (landing on the handlebars), then racing Downhill and winning the next day. Ouch, but…..Woot!

Fears: None. Well, I lied. Spiders. And, spiderwebs. And, dark, dank, spidery places. Shudder.
