Just between us: Luca Cometti

Hailing from San Diego, California, Luca Cometti is part of a rising tide of talented young downhill racers coming out of the United States right now. It takes more than just raw speed and balls of steel to make it as professional downhill racer and as every race passes, Luca is taking his determination and passion for racing and developing the necessary tradecraft required to succeed in one of the most challenging sports in the world.

Here below the personal letter to his bikes, the best partners in crime during the MTB challenges all around the world.

Dear bikes,

I know it can be hard at times battling for my attention, after all, there are 4 of you and one of me. But I appreciate the understanding, as I promise I will make time to get to each of you and hopefully you’ll gift me with some space up on that box. While the trip may be taxing on you, I promise it will be all worth it in the end. We will get to see the world together and experience things, people only dream of. While you will not be with me forever, I can promise that your co workers will continue to gift me with the best of friends, stories and memories that I could only dream of. Dear bikes, you have given me more than I could have ever asked for and for that, I salute you. 

Your friend,
Luca Cometti
