YEAH TROY!!!!

 

[aaronjb]

Greenland seems like such a good dude. His bike paint scheme is in memory of his mother, right?

 

[slimshady]

That hope that formed on the log jump in the middle of split 4-5 is getting really dangerous, Laurie lost the lead (and almost the run) there.

 

[slimshady]

On a separate note, you can tell how Troy was riding at the limit from the tire buzzes on his pants.

 

[Gary]

was the drone away for a piss there?

They brought just one spare battery.

most of the riders with lighter coloured leggings have scat club stripes

 

[aaronjb]

Go Daniel, go!

Edit: How is his new baby doing?

 

[Gary]

hahahaha

I sprayed coffee out from that one

 

[Gary]

WTF???

 

[slimshady]

GO LOIC!!!

 

[aaronjb]

lolwhut Bruni

Edit: He could stop to change a flat. Poor TB gonna end up with another second place, I bet.

 

[HAB]

Loic, what the fuck

 

[slimshady]

FOUR
FUCKING
SECONDS!!!

 

[CBJ]

Now we have a race!

 

[aaronjb]

That second berm is a mess.

 

[Gary]

 

[slimshady]

So bushy eyebrows trump inexistent upper lips?

 

[aaronjb]

What did Bruni do between splits 1 and 2?

 

[slimshady]

What did Bruni do between splits 1 and 2?

Flapped his eyebrows for extra boost?

 

[Gary]

Dafuq did Loic do in that second split to pull 2.5 secs on evetyone?

Magical to watch his run

 

[aaronjb]

Finn not starting?!

Edit: Ah, huge crash this morning. For the better.

 

[Gary]

C'mon MOMO

 

[Gary]

French 1, 2, 3?

 

[slimshady]

French 1, 2, 3?

For sure

 

[aaronjb]

Despite the trade team differences, the French federation always seems to have it together as a team.

 

[slimshady]

Can Bruni survive a whole run watching Pierron?

 

[Gary]

Bom Bom Bom Bom bom bo bom
ta da da da ta d a dah

 

[aaronjb]

Five Worlds in the modern era is an unreal feat.

I can't wait for Loic's POV

Edit: lol at the gendarmes

Yes, that will be something watch. That run was magic. When there is such a difference in time you can see it and impressive show from the French too on home soil. Happy it was possible to stream.

 

[Inclag]

Dafuq did Bruni do? As incredible as it's been watching Pierron and to an extent Gwinn and others dominate the WC at times, Bruni is a freaking magician. How many times has he left people wondering how he's pulled insane split times in sections compared to the rest of the field?

 

[Happymtb.fr]

Crazy crowd

 

[jstuhlman]

HOLY SHIT

 

[slimshady]

On a related note, it's amazing watching Greg stay in the bubble. He might not had the best run of his life, but he can clearly stay in touch with these younger beasts.

 

[Happymtb.fr]

And Gwin 8th

 

[slyfink]

Oh no, please, no. Stand up, dude.

Edit: Ah, good. I think he got knocked out.

going otb at speed is how I broke my back a year ago yesterday. vertebrae got crushed when I folded. seeing that and watching him there was intense. luckily, he's lighter, younger and stronger than me! I suppose landing in a steep incline also helped.

what a race. super bummed Finn didn't take the start, even if it was the result of a good decision...

 

[iRider]

Lol, Fischbach best German rider....although he is basically a privateer.

 

[Bike078]

Bruni's suspension looked really soft compared to the others. What a wild, wild race.
