Mont Sainte Anne (CAN) 2013 World Cup #4
- Thread starter bismojo
- Start date
will they be racing against bobby root and his blowup doll?
here's my top 5:
5) General Lee (jackalope seems to have the inside scoop)
4) Nico
3) Peaty
2) HB (strategically places go-go dancers to distract the UCI officials)
1) Palmer

Who all is going up? I am heading up early AM tomorrow.
No shots of HB or Lopes, but here are my photos from last year - swassskier's photosets on Flickr

Then everyone's team trailers get stolen.
Women's race will be won by Tracy Hannah
Mods, any chance of getting this unstuck and starting an ACTUAL race thread. 
Now there's some actual coverage we can start being super cereal about racing.
Gee has all the momentum here, unless he has an off I can't imagine him not being top 3 at least.
Gwin knows he has to win on the worlds stage soon, MSA is probably as good a place as any.
Minnaar will do well on a track which seems like pedalling prowess will be paramount.
Other racers will be present and will fill out positions 4-80.

Claudio did a roll down.

Track looks a lot like meeehh.
Smith will make the canadians proud.
Bulldog will be on the podium if healthy due to big balls.
Brendog will actually ride the whole event on one wheel due to the smoothness of the track.
Sam Hill will be outside the top ten, because he will fall asleep during race run. Track's to boring.
Tons of balls will be smashed on the big step down.

I agree with most of this. But I think it's precisely because Gwin "has to win" that he might not. Winning Nats will help but dude's got issues this year.
Nice #throwback on vital :

looked fast and up to date (racers and bikes).. Anyway, imagine if Kovarik racing this year's MSA!

I think the Mods checked out a long time ago.
Is that the "between the tape" year? Might watch that later....
I'm sure that the confidence boost that comes from lighting up a bunch of kids and never-will-be's is the missing ingredient to Gwin getting back on the top step.
Random observation after watching the Claudio roll down (fvcking great btw) - every one of the tracks so far have been absolutely radical, and I'm quite sure I couldn't ride shamefully long sections of each one, much less at near the pace these guys are going. And that there have been relatively few bad off's/injuries this year, if further testament to how good these guys & gals are.
Can't wait until Sunday!

Just wait until Beaumont and/or MacDonald decide it's time for a race wreck again
more importantly, who will do the best heckling?
maybe gee will come through again.Just wait until Beaumont and/or MacDonald decide it's time for a race wreck again
Why do people (especially in murika™ call eating shlt an 'off'.
that sounds like a euphemism for whackin it. I totally just snuck out back and had an off bro, huh huh. I just offed, derp derp.
crash
slam
fck up
These are all perfectly superior substitutes. The pinky flingin tea drinkers in rot mouth land sound fine saying it because everything else you say already sounds funny. But you freedom patriots have no excuse. Parkin brothers dirt tv edits are rad to watch. You don't need to talk like everyone in them though.

Good lord I hope not, we don't need any big crashes / injuries. Then we'd all have to dust off our neck braces we bought in '09.
Kidwoo's got his knickers in a bunch!
No, his kit is in a bunch because he had a bad off due to misadjusted dampers while having a go on the track.
Or maybe his Boxxers were twisted?
How many pairs of Boxxers does he wear?
his shoes didn't match
Good heavens!
ftfy
and shut up, you'll get one thread and you'll like it. if you want to turn it into a wheel size or chainstay length debate, that's up to you.
