Amateur Human Racing

Shootout to our racers at DHSE - Windrock! Tracks look like a riot per usual!

Another year of has passed. Arguably one of the best races of the year.

New season, same commitment to poor financial decisions. 💸

Who's ready for TTC??

Legs said ride. Course said crawl.

When the amateurs get money we get E-bikes

My name is Zach Koenigsber and I’m a downhill rider based in Knoxville Tennessee, training primarily at Windrock. I’ve put in over a hundred laps this season and built my progression on consistency, discipline, and showing up even when the conditions aren’t ideal. I balance full-time university with a focused riding and gym schedule, and I approach downhill with patience, commitment, and long-term goals in mind.

My name’s Casey Marksberry. I’ve been riding mountain bikes since 2017, after getting hooked on my first bike. I grew up racing motocross, so some of that carries over, even though I took a long break — my last moto race was back in 2010. Mountain biking ended up filling that same excitement and rush for me. I’m originally from Indiana, but I moved to Knoxville in early 2021 for better terrain, and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made. I’ve been racing since 2021 — lots of tough lessons, lots of improvement, and plenty of good times. I’ve still got goals I’m chasing, but as long as I’m progressing and having fun, that’s what matters most.

Looks like that southeast winter riding is coming early this year. Who's ready for freezing cold mud laps of desperation?

Good time riding with some Michigan friends. If you haven't already, give a follow and listen.

Hi, I’m Mason Brown, and I am from Gadsden, AL. I first got into mountain biking at 12 or 13 years old after watching my older brother race on our local XC team. What started as a way to spend time with him quickly turned into a passion of my own.
I now focus primarily on Downhill and Enduro. This past year I competed in my first full race series, Downhill Southeast, and I’m looking forward to building on that momentum. I’m excited for the upcoming season and grateful to have a strong team supporting me.

In typical Amateur fashion, we have yet to do proper introductions. So why not start!? I'd like to welcome in 1 of our newest members .

"I’m an ultra-endurance XC rider at heart with finishes on 300-400 mile self-supported routes like Huracan, CFITT, the Vista, the Mountain 420 and a first place finish at the 2023 TNGA. Even though I love pedaling and big days on backcountry singletrack, I’m also game for a good shuttle/park day on the enduro bike. I’m a recent transplant to Knoxville and joined the team to build community, push my skills, and explore trails with new friends."

It’s always the slow falls
