awesome! that bridge/drop-to-flat thing near the bottom, coming out of the woods looks disgusting with all that mud on it.

Yup, he was amazing, and still is. He looked really strong and focused today. Be great to see him pull it off again.
It's not as disgusting as the caterpillar on Matty's face.©2001;3006311 said:
Not long after we got dumped on. Fraser and my cams looked like they had a new mud / camo paint job. Holy spray!!!!!!!

nah...that goop at the bottom at the finish looks like a big slow speed sucking drag.? Those pics in practice give me chub though!
it is pretty rad... i had so much fun on the track today
Freecaster Grand Prix just ended, Greg Minnaar takes home the title. JD Swanguen was second and Steve Peat was third.
The track was slick as hell and everyone was off in the grass at least once or twice. Some of us way more than others.

Butch, you have redeemed yourself in light of the "walking comment"... :biggrin:
I'm flattered you think I'm the world's fastest. You know something - there was a time when I was walking my bike down a rock garden - brakes non-functional due to a sh!tty bleed, and I remember thinking: "Someday someone will say I'm the fastest in the world". Well, today my friend, is that day. Furthermore I would like to thank all those who...... wait a sec...... aw CRAP...
Nevermind.
:biggrin:
No kidding, I ran a fender last year at several races and people gave odd looks, but I don't recall having any mud on my goggles. Fad's come and go, but what makes sense will always make sense.
I've seen a lot of those tube fenders that people attach with zip-ties
I noticed Fabien had a fender...granted it was on the lowers...but good.
my company's proxy server doesn't like your site
lthumbsdown:
I think you are talking about the tube from the arch to the crown that everyone runs. Those kinda work, but nothing beats a real front THE fender for a real mud race. Plus you get to make moto sounds.
Am I the only one that mtbcut.tv streams like absolute crap for? I know it isn't my internet connection.
I couldn't even finish mine when watching, was a real bad feed for me too.
Same here balls with a capital B
Just back from Littermag & Spomer has a great first day photo log from Sven & Flipper. Oh..and Peaty's oddball new paint job.

Scandalaous
Is the freecaster video working for anybody?

On an unrelated note. Farmer Jack and the Athertons off of the dirt site is a good watch.
yes litter, and flipper and sven!!!!
I had to let it it there and load for awhile despite it showing no progress, but it eventually loaded the entire thing and worked just fine. For some reason it doesn't give progress reports and wont play till its done loading.
sure does, and it's good! great song and editing!
Wow, that HD is sweet! Thanks for braving the weather and muck and posting the vid! Any plans on making a full-length flick?
I am doing so. Bones Over Metal has grown from the efforts of making a documentary that is mostly shot and I hope finished after the season. The goal has always been to make a film that appeals to those not in our sport. So, story line has been important. Thanks for asking?
Given the strength of the field right now, I can't imagine we'll see a 10 second win by anybody! But yes, should be a strong british showing!
4X practice and qualifying cancelled today. They're going to try and run practice, qualies, and finals tomorrow after DH. Sun is out and course is drying up, but who knows what the weather is going to do.
