Andorra.
Steep, technical.
The boys from S+S will make it (Specialized and Santa Cruz). I expect a rainbow Demo for next year.
Not only appealing to us RockJesus fans but also sellable to the females! Hooray for rainbow carbon!
Maybe some crazy Nukeproof pinner will make an appearance on the podium alongside New Zealands stonecrusher™. Quit possibly the Devinci lumberjacks will put on a chainsaw maasacre in the woods too.
Oh and every british racer who starts will be in the top 15.
Rachel will get the new rainbow jersey this week via FedEx. Nothing to prove there.
The after race party in Cedrics bar and house will be crazy.
I mean loose 3 days in one week.

* 2nd gold for spez DEMO,
* Remi is down, too bad we cannot see if BOS suspension/ data acquisition/. telemetry can win gold over gwin's stiff settings.

Maybe Pompon will run it, if she's not in already in holidays with Jackalope.
Looks like another implementation of the Zero/DW-Link/Maestro System.

Cesar said in his FB page the proto doesn't have a target customer (yet). But it looks certainly zeroish to me...Maybe Pompon will run it, if she's not in already in holidays with Jackalope.

Zero is actually Cesar's suspension design, right?
nahh the beast in peace is IN
dirt instagram: "
1h
- dirtmagazineJust in case anyone is interested... big man @tibaldog (pictured) of Team Commencal Vallnord says REMI THIRION WILL RIDE at World Champs. Game on."
Insane. Dude just broke his ankle less than a month ago WTF....
i feel like read in one of the 'photo epics' that he is... he kinda took it easy last weekend
So I wonder how long its been since Peat wasn't on the Brit Worlds team? Hopefully he will at least be there, turning over hotel beds, barfing in sinks and discreetly tossing luggage out the window before the authorities arrive.
This^^^
Even if he throttles it back just a touch so that he stays on his bike and on course, I'm betting on him.

I sure hope so- seeing him nail that Val di Sol gap in practice, so far riders-right was awesome!
No one calling Bruni eh? Surely, after so many second places all year, he's gotta be hungry? I'd love to see Thirion put on a clinic in balls out technical riding though.
But yeah, Brosnan or Gwin seem most likely.

Loic, Troy, Gwin, Minaar or ratty would be my predictions
Rachel, no doubt.

You'd have to be really silly to bet on Loic taking anything other then 2nd.
If Loic was on the biggest loser, he'd get 2nd place.
while I included him in my list (loic), I pretty much just named the overall points podium (now that I look back) oooooh boy I really went out on a limb there.....you're probably right, the poor kid is destined to be the gee atherton of 2015. Always close, but just not close enough.
Yeah pretty much and yeah, not much of a limb. I'm hoping Minnaar and Ratboy can get some helpful knowledge from local bro CG. But damn those specialized guys are tearing it up and will be tough to beat.
I agree that Brosnan is pissed, but Minnaar can't be too happy with the last round either.
Should be a good one.
Totally agree. IMO, Brosnan is the only guy right now who can beat Gwin even when Gwin has a burner run that punks the rest of the field.
Troy was 6th at Wyndham after a proper OTB and 3rd at VDS after a crash (he was up by ~0.5 seconds at the first split, crashed before the 2nd split and subsequently down by ~2.3 seconds, then finished only ~1.8 seconds behind), which leads me to believe he's going to stomp a muddy dick hole in the field (including Rocky) once he remembers: [Warner] stay on your bike Troy! [/Warner]
I get the whole "you can't win if you crash" thing, but I really feel like he's been building momentum all season (kinda like Ratboy did last year) and if he can keep it together in a place like Vallinord, it will be a smashing win methinks.
It will also provide more motivation for me to "Specialize" my TR450 by cutting off one of the seatpost masts. The whole asymmetrical thing really seems to improve overall rideability.
Curious as to what Hill has in the tank, tossing in his chips on an Aluminum sig frame is kinda brassy - so I say he's got some gas.
One thing tho - no more Claudio come 2016.

Yes gee won, but that was when? And he's been oh so close but not so close enough how many times since?
So many injuries but wouldn't that be something if he came back and killed it. Not holding my breath though
I've got some friends over there for old man worlds. Steep steep steep is the word.
So yeah.......sounds the same
Calling someone a Gee is hella mean, dude.
I don't think anybody really needs to worry too much about Gee for this race. He's kind of a one trick pony these days.
On second thought, since that trick seems to be "doing shitty through the year and then crushing it at worlds" I guess people should probably consider him a contender.
I think the only sure bet is a 2nd place for Loic.

Huh?
If brosnan stays on his bike, seriously, all this shit is moot.
Just go back and look at that last race. REallyyyyyyyy look at it. Don't listen to warner, don't look at him being down after his tree fight, just watch his riding. That's the next level up from rockjesus. With the stuff he was doing, I'm rooting for him. He's in a state of wantin it like no one else right now.

Imagine what would happen if Brosnan had the power of jesus and temecula on his side.
I blame jesus for every race gwin lost after 2011. Pretty sure 2013 is what smiting looks like.
As far as temecula goes........I can only imagine that air makes you stronger. Oh wait........no it kills you. I always get those two mixed up.

Last Season.
LOL, sometimes my brain farts, and sometimes when it does it allows me to post stupid shit on the internet LOL
I guess I must have blocked that out of my memory banks since he seemed pretty irrelevant as a contender to actually win a race this season (I mean not really, he's always got a chance, but it seems fun to jump on the Gee can't win bandwagon sometimes)
