What's up with every team dry humping houndstooth? Royal had it last year and this year and now Trek as well a few other teams that the names escape me.

Wonder how much kit Apline Star sells to paying customers (downhillers).......?..

That stuff is ugly.

Pssh...

I KNOW - right?

For racing this season, I'm gonna wear my Cop Uniform that I wore at Eurobike last year...

That sh!t is HOT, AND aerodynamic.

Added Bonus: Chicks dig it.

DIRTmag, perhaps?

So the full course is crap.
What is it just flat out with a few big jumps and a knarly rock section?
That it?
Would you have still when if you knew what the course was going to be like?

It's the only rock section on the course, which looks like a longer version of sea otter. There is about 3 corners on the entire thing. LAME. Lots of travel for a crappy course.
Riders seem to prefer it to the Worlds Track this year, and thats further to travel to. But yes, just like Canberra this is not SA's best city to visit nor best track to race on. But if you actually walked the track during todays racing instead of sitting in the car by the finish line all day you would see that this is no sea otter :-)

sven, you of all people should know by now that fraser is not happy at a race unless he can find something (everything) to complain about.

so it might not be an epic track, but it is the world cup opener and everyone's pretty fired up to get the season started.

Wow, Kovarik on top. Awesome.

Surprised not to see Peat, Minnaar, or Hill up there?
