Check out the first 20 seconds of the MTBCut footage from Day 2 - they caught this moment on video from another angle. Pretty cool.

I see Mr. Nico Vouilloz is in for this one.
It seems that whenever the alien races it pisses down!!!I see Mr. Nico Vouilloz is in for this one.
and, like in champery the weather was horrendous...and sam did something incredible...although we shall see what happens.
the rain also didn't start until there were a handful of riders left and the champery track was considerably more difficult to ride in those conditions. i still think the wet gives sam an edge.
nico's really racing? SICK!!!
Wait, Vouilloz is racing? If so how did this escape the attention of pretty much everyone; 'cause last i checked that would kind of be a big deal.
Too lazy to check to official start list, but I'm assuming someone saw his name on there. Can anyone confirm if he is he actually present and racing?

Nico racing?!?!?1 SICKKKK!!!
Sam will do good for sure regardless of the condition...but my money on Greg for the overall.
Cant wait for the RACE ! yahoo!!!!:biggrin:

Nico was going to race Schmalding last year.......after Champery.......he broke his wrist though i think.
Someone find an old press release......?

Man...I thought for a second that there were 300 riders but it looks like many of those are juniors.
I think Matchew was just referring to Vouilloz in the post above his and thought that meant Nico was racing.
Anyone know what time qualifying is/is over? Gonna git up extra early just to catch those results

Random thought of the day:
Think its possible that just the fact that each day of practice is being documented on film now for everyone to see so soon, that that in itself is helping to push the riders? Take for instance... Peaty's line as seen in the MTBcut vid from today into the right hand corner where he sneakily hops up into the grass to set up wide... NUGGING FUTS! Im sure other riders there that hadnt seen that now will give it a shot in tomorrows practice after watching the vid.

Some of you may know that my real job is that of a middle school teacher. well, seeing as it was friday and the kids were being good I fired up freecaster in my classroom and they watched the 4x live during their lunch period. General concensus among a group of ADHD 13 year olds is that it was pretty cool. But they liked the DH clips of freecaster/dirt-tv even better. None of them will probably ever ride a DH bike, but at least they can drink the koolaid
They probably used some useful expressions from Warner as well...Some of you may know that my real job is that of a middle school teacher. well, seeing as it was friday and the kids were being good I fired up freecaster in my classroom and they watched the 4x live during their lunch period.

7am here in schladming, and it is raining... rained on and off all night but never heavy, and they are calling for scattered light rain showers all day
all this hype of mud i am not buying... so far the track has gotten better each time it has rained so i am pretty pumped to see what it will be like today
this is one track you can hit flat out when it is wet... sooooo much grip
250 dudes fighting for 80 spots, yeah it's gonna be tight to make the final

sick pic of you dave courtesy of Fraser.
are they showing quali's on freecaster? i thought it was just finals starting in about 6 hours from now.
If Freecaster cancels the livefeed again like it did in Cranbrah.......
there's just no way i'm going to sober up in 4 hours, but i'm setting my alarm anyway. 
I'll start on that soon and be wired on coffee by the time it starts! 
Thanks for posting, being a competitor. And good luck in semifinal!
I was napping on and off most of Friday since it was my day off and I was a little sore from a bail the day before. One more power-nap and I should be ready to rock at 4-freaking-30 am!

i know exactly what you mean GL. Dr. peppers(not the pop) and heineken is doing work on me right now, not the best combo. unless you really want to get smashed.
good luck trying to get up. hopefully i dont pass out before it starts
It's working for me. It's 2:17am here and it starts in 2:12 hours!!!
I'm drinking Iced caribou coffee to compensate for sleep and tangueray gin.
