Thanks.

you want individual races or overall champs? or just the names of people who have won a race (it is a very small #, and it gets tiny if you look at who has won more than once)

 

[ire]

men, women or both?

 

[General Lee]

men, women or both?

i thought it was don't ask don't tell around here?

 

[norbar]

Overall Point Winners. Men would be just fine but more info won't kill me.

Someone might want to double check my memory but i believe it is:

93 Jurgen Beneke
94 Francois Gachet
95 Nico Vouilloz
96 Nico Vouilloz
97 Corrado Herin
98 Nico Vouilloz
99 Nico Vouilloz
00 Nico Vouilloz
01 Greg Minnaar
02 Steve Peat
03 Nathan Rennie
04 Steve Peat
05 Greg Minnaar
06 Steve Peat
07 Sam Hill

The rest looks correct. Thanks Lee.

 

[General Lee]

01 Was Minnaar. I also think Nico won less times

yeah realized that right after i typed it, beat him right at the wire in Ste. Anne

 

[norbar]

Anyway I had no idea that Corrado Herin was a pro luge racer(found when checking on wiki). Well it seems that once you learn to race it stays with you in all disciplines.

 

[General Lee]

I know he won a bunch of races in '96/97 but couldn't remember if Tommy Misser should have been on that list somewhere as well so I searched his name and look at what came up:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_Bike_World_Cup#Downhill

http://www.uci.ch/modello.asp?1stlevelid=CC&level1=4&level2=0&idnews=2653


both of which confirm what I already posted. nerd alert

I knew my google powers began to lose their strength. I saw it some day and that was exactly the link I was thinking about.

Chausson with 9 senior WC wins... Nice.

 

[mattmatt86]

Damn Spain and France own the Trails comp.

 

[norbar]

France actually owns most of the comps. I'm not sure what makes them so fast cheese or wine (ruled out the noses as being non aerodynamic)

 

[Mani_UT]

Damn Spain and France own the Trails comp.

I might be wrong but I think that if you do comp via an FFC (french USAC) club with a trainer and all you must enter DH, XC and Trial. You're allowed to focuse on one discipline only after 14? Or someinthg like this

When?

 

[General Lee]

When?

Gracia won '95 juniors, with a time faster than Vouilloz's winning run in seniors.

 

[Motoking16]

Gracia won '05 juniors, with a time faster than Vouilloz's winning run in seniors.

Thanks, didn't know that. But that is wickid!

 

[fortenndu]

Gracia won '05 juniors, with a time faster than Vouilloz's winning run in seniors.

Are you sure you have your dates right??

 

[norbar]

Probably he meant 95

 

[Sandro]

Probably he meant 95

yup, Gracia won in 95 in Kirchzarten ahead of Klausmann.
