Ƶappmountain bikers Greg Day and Quinn Moberg rebounded from a flat tire early on Day 2 of the seven-stage B.C. Bike Race.

According to Pinkbike.com, one of the two had a flat early in the stage, but the pair managed to battle back into the lead in the men’s team of two category by the end of the stage in Cumberland, Vancouver Island, on Monday (June 30).

“We were hoping to stay with the faster riders of the day, but the flat put us off our game. We definitely pushed ourselves to get back into position,” Day told Pinkbike.com.

After Tristan Uhl took the stage win on Day 1 in North Vancouver, Kris Sneddon of Sechelt led the men’s open race after the second day.

Leah Davidson was the overall women’s leader after Day 2, while former world champion Catharine Pendrel and Maghalie Rochette were the leaders in the women’s team of two category, Pinkbike.com reported.

Official results of Day 3 in Powell River on Tuesday (July 1) were unavailable because of problems with B.C. Bike Race’s timing equipment. Results of Day 4 in Sechelt on Wednesday (July 2) were unavailable by press time.

The racers will cover 52 kilometres in Ƶappon Day 6 on Friday (July 4). Racing gets underway next at 9 a.m., with the start and finish lines located at Brennan Park. The first riders are expected to cross the finish line at around 11:30 a.m. and there is a free kids race at Brennan Park at 2 p.m.
