Towing the party line.
DH was wet and muddy. Also, people complain about dark, flashed Dh photos. Well, for the first time in as long as I can remember, this is ACTUALLY how dark the woods were. Riders were complaining they couldn't see anything at all in the last wood section due to the rain and mega lack of light!

Balls, just came in from an extended road ride, since I knew I was going to miss most of the action anyway, and found I'd left my PC on with freecaster open and the speakers on. Feed wasn't running when I'd left the house so didn't occur to me. The minute I walk in the door I hear them announcing the winner as he climbed onto the podium - arse! lol

Wonder if Graves will decide to unpack the DH bike now since the qualifying was postponed until after the 4x. Sure he's missed a load of practice, but still, be rude not to since he's there!

Woke up to rain and alot of fog today.
After a few hours the rain started really pissing hard. The track became a river after a few hours.

First jump before the woods up top.


The enterance of the rock garden. Some scary ****.


Sam pinning it for the first jump.


It´s cleard up now, and skies are semi blue again. Might be sticky mud tomorrow if it dries up a little...

4X was alotta fun to watch live. They had super good camera coverage on the big screen in the finish area. I hope you guys who watched freecaster saw the same shots. Perfecto.

Riders ready!


Mens winner at the finish.


Mens podium.


Womens podium.


Kitner didn´t look happy at all, but she did the mistake as I saw it.

Dirt & MTB cut vids of DH practice up. MTBcut needs to go and buy themselves an HD cam :)

Well, a lens cloth would be a good start too, but the HD content from dirt is sublime :)

Or a lens cloth!! Looks like the Dirt guys stayed in the pits longer and the MTBcut guys stayed trackside longer. Then again dirttv is 2 people/2 cameras right?
DirtTV is 3 people/3 cameras, well 2 people/2 cameras who know what they're doing and 1/people/1 cameras (me) who doesn't know what he's doing.

I don't know what is happening.
Since Fort William, all videos from Freecaster are ages to load. Just impossible to watch.
Is only with me???
ive had this before fort william

takes soooo long to load any video, have to go away and come back to watch the syndicate interview without it stopping and loading

so frustrating

Hey Billy, probably not your department but the DirtTV videos take an absolute eternity to load. Way longer than they should. Sort that Mpora gear out!

Dirt/mpora seems fine to me, never had a problem. FC is slow these days though. Just open all the vids you want to watch in different tabs, pause them all, go have a beer and come back.

Agreed, mpora seems fine but it's like a 20 min wait to watch anything on FC atm.

Hey Billy, any possibility of getting song credits in the movies/on the webpage? Spent AGES trying to decipher any lyrics of Sat DH vid so I could google the song and discover you're on a bit of a Ladytron rampage.
