Busting out a total time of 58:19:8 – Brian emerged with the Men’s Elite Class victory, blazing the 2.7 km course and leaving the more than 500 overall racers in his dust. Image: Corey Keiser

    For Oakley’s Brian Lopes, the number 55 isn’t just any number. The defending Air DH champion blazed through Whistler Mountain Bike park alongside 381 of the world’s best downhill competitors and emerged victorious with his fifth win at the course. But what made the win count even more special wasn’t the victory itself. It was the fact that Tyler Blick, the son of Oakley Sports Marketing Manager (Mountain Bike) Steve Blick, was celebrating his fifth birthday – after being diagnosed with Leukemia the previous month. Lopes’ fifth win, combined with Blick’s fifth birthday, form Lopes’ lucky number 55.
