Didn't Brosnan come really close there one time? Could be a good course for him.

From what I remember, carrying speed is super important there... I think Troy, Hill, Hart, Gee and Gwin have good chances here given their performances in sector two at Fort Bill... Would love to see Stevie get on the podium too...

Schedule?? Looks like race is on Sunday.
Really just can't wait for Claudio's run and trying to figure out if it will be Thursday or Friday. Was really hoping it would be today.

This. Well, Brendog gets a pic in every Vital slideshow and has a few videoparts. But I really feel bad that we don't see him regularly in the top ten.
Who's also riding for Scott? :D

Maybe they should bring back Mr. Vink to the WC. He and Brendog could be the counterpart to the Pivot-couple. :thumb:

I didn't notice the kit of the rest of his team but what was with Brendog's jersey in Ft. William? He looked like a guy at his first race with very few sponsors and a kit that's not the best idea if you want to be photographed and be visible on those photos.

Meh, given up on wanting him to do well. He doesn't have a win in him. Sounds harsh I know, and if I could choose to be able to ride like any of those guys, it would be him - but he's just not got what it takes to win a WC race.

Brendan was wearing TLD new Sprint kit

Black and White, he wears flashy stuff all the time, one time he wears black/grey and white and he is racing his first race? really? I put on all the same sized logos as all his other kits. He got more pics than anyone else in the teens of the results, so, works for me. Now we got Claudio in TLD Sprint, so I hope Claudios kit is ok with you.

Winter was definitely dry in the north of the alps where Austria lays. But Leogang normlly gets a ton of rain, so it seems strange to me.
Maybe it rains during the weekend.

Maybe it was the feed but it just made him blend with a track and it just reminded me of local racing days 10 years ago. I like TLD stuff Stick so don't take is as a dig. I was just surprised with that choice for the race, even if that kit may sell well since many people like less flashy gear. Also from my limited photo experience colors end up looking better on photos than gray. It's just an observation, not a dig in any way against TLD or people who prefer grey over neon any color.


btw. He did get more photos because he's Brendog and how he rides. He's a great rider to sponsor even in grey pj's ;)

To be fair to Norbar, it looked pretty crap on the hill too

To be fair I'm spending way too much time on RM. Doing too much boring stuff at work makes me bug people a bit too much. Don't care about how he look really. It just surprised me when everyone else is looking like a christmass tree. I'd rep Pegboy too but must spread rep.
