X-Fusion/ Intense wraps up their midseason Europe trip at the World Cup in Maribor, Slovania. Kieran Bennett now returns to New Zealand to train until he returns to North America to compete in the 2 Canadian WC's and Crankworx. It has been rough for KB traveling without the support of his teammate Ryan Condrashoff, but Ryan is making a quick recovery and will be back with the team heading to National Champs. KB has had some big crashes in the past few weeks so he is happy to have a few weeks off to recover and head into the rest of the season healthy. X-Fusion/ Intense will be back on familiar soil on the next leg of our travels so look for more exciting race videos. In the meantime, here is KB in action at Maribor.

We are glad he is staying healthy and is able to travel to Maribor to collect himself and have a successful race weekend. Here is Theo's footage from the last few weeks on the road.
