shisssh Minnar is one hell of a piner, it's so amazing to see him ride a bike like he does. His flow is amazing...

If the prize was 7k why didnt more of the pros race? Or did they and just didnt do as good as usual (i.e. Rennie, Hill, Peat, Barel)?

ya, its funny travel all over world winning nothing except pride, go down to Mexico of all places after the "race" seasons over and hook up long dollars.

Minnaar's racing in japan this weekend, 3 continents in 3 weeks, high flyer.

Vasquez is now managed by 23 degrees, so MW is getting him to the right places and meeting the right people, he will be huge next season, like he was when he was 18 and riding for Volvo Cannondale and leadin the world cup for a while.

i found the results for the race but no luck finding pics, it was held in queretaro though so maybe searching for that will produce some eye candy
