Shea Jordan In The USA
After living in Argentina for the past 18 years and being plagued by injury. Shea decided to take some time off from the bike. Not knowing if he would ever be able to ride again he shifted his focus to moving back home to the states to further his eduction.
Over the past two years Shea has settled into "normal" society going to school for structural engineering and working a nine to five job at a local bike shop. It took two years for Shea to realize that riding a bike is a form of sanity and it made him who he is and he was not about to quit on it.
Shea has his eyes fixed on transferring into Sand Diego States engineering program and breaking into the Pro DH class the next few years should be an interesting few for this unique individual.
Like always any support or sponsorships for advancing his goals is appreciated.

Pursuing Perfection Presented By Saint
The points start collecting from the very first beep of the season at round one. The pressure of their presence sits on riders’ shoulders all year. The ticking clock may stop after each run but the abacus never stops, it only pauses between races to coil the riders springs even tighter. Until eventually the chips are counted at the final round.

About the Megavalanche
A race that does not need much of an introduction, the grueling Megavalanche in l'Alpe d'Huez is a legend in its own right, a mass start downhill marathon, starting from the Pic Blanc glacier 3.300 meters above sea level. About 2.000 riders take part each year in July in l'Alpe d'Huez. More than 30 nationalities are represented.
Bluegrass Factory Development
Both Rémy Absalon and Jérome Clementz are members of the Bluegrass Factory Development team.
About Bluegrass
