Cheers for the reminder - got a last minute swap in as Manon is out I think. It rained over night and one of the pics on Dirt was this by Sebastian Schieck which I thought was just awesome

Are you sure that photo is from MSA? Looks like Epping last week!

Just watched the finals on redbull tv, Rachel got the win and Arun Gwin the men's, Danny hart second. Gee Atherton came in fourth after his insane crash, Rob Warner said gee is so hard he drinks concrete for breakfast.. Legend..

But you've gotta see if you can the run by Arun, that man is just so fast....

The course is rocky and steep insanely steep... :-)

Gwin is making a mess things for me in the fantasy league stakes! But both Hart and Minaar are on my team, so there's minimal damage I guess... Good racing, it's always a joy to watch the top guys show the world how it's done!

Respect to gee for his 4th - 2 days after going through the speed trap at 53k off his bike on his head!

Pretty much admitting defeat with my team this year. Like mentioned about Gwin is killing my team.

Errrrrrrr just glanced at the qualifying times for windham, some guy apparently just went 37 seconds faster than Gwin. Surely a technical glitch?!

Image


Edit: Actually looking at the splits, the chance of someone doing a section that Gwin and everyone else took over a minute on in 15.3 seconds is definitely not possible! I'd guess a timing error or a crash that cut out a big bit of track!

Rachel Atherton takes the Women's down hill podium...

But the men's final was epic... the rock garden claiming some nasty off's... but Gwin tales the podium again with a fantastic win.. Gee getting third .....

Val looks like a really interesting course.. nice to see something different. Wide open with lots of opportunity for good TV coverage

Oh no! Just read Tracy Hannah had a crash and is in hospital, obviously hope she'll be fine - but she's in my team and missed the transfer window now! Nearly change for Ragot for home advantage yesterday anyway, doh!
