CONWAY — Week 7, featuring the Jesse E. Lyman III Memorial Downhill, started off with partly cloudy skies and a good breeze. You needed to play the wind if you wanted a fast time.

Eddie Bradley set this week’s course and set a great downhill course. With the past few days’ weather, the course was perfect all day and we had no major crashes besides our own Sean Doucette (official Meisters results coordinator). He went for it all and had the crash of the year, but he is OK, so it’s all good. We also had Jesse Lyman IV here all day trying his best at the downhill, trying hard to break into the top with a fast straight tuck run, ignoring all the gates — but he still couldn’t catch the fast guys. All in all, it was a great day and everyone had a great time.
