June 2010

The June issue of The XTERRA Planet quarterly celebrates downtown Richmond, Virginia where this month's XTERRA East Championship will be run for the 12th straight year. On the cover is Conrad "the Caveman" Stoltz, on the run in Richmond during his first-ever XTERRA in 2001. Inside, he talks about how he fell in love with the sport that year and some of the wild experiences he's had in the city since. We'll also check in on a trio of XTERRA Tribe members that had babies in May, roll out a quarky Q and A with four of the sports' biggest stars, and find out what XTERRA Pioneer Scott Schumaker is up to nowadays. In the Kahuna's Korner we honor our neighbors to the north - the athletes and events that have made Canada such an important member of our global community. Plus, we keep you current with podium notes from XTERRA World Tour championship races, follow Rich Costello's quest for the Grizzly Adams-like beard, and prove that even the most skilled mountain bikers crash.
