She looked amazing the whole way down. Other people have said this before but the women have really progressed and it's great fun to see the race.
Worlds in a week! Track preview with Brook!
- Thread starter UiUiUiUi
- Start date
There was an ad on pb forums for Iranian national team trainer not so long ago
Sweet. Some of these first guys look like me out there. I always wondered what I would look like at worlds.
I wish that White Jeans kid won so we could see it as the new outfit among the bike fashion crowds.
Rockwell with the quote of the day after that kids crash. "It appears that his brakes failed."
streaming it live..
whats the schedule like?
and is that Gwin commentating?
and wtf is with the alalalala people at the top?

That was a nasty crash into those wooden posts. Didn't look good.
congrats to Minnaarr.
i think its time for Gwin to get a new chainguide sponsor.

yeah, sure seems like it.
is that the second time this year gwins chain guide has cost him a race?
Sam hill - 5th, and it still seems like a loss. Pumped to see him back on form enough that I can think that.
Hopefully tbro is alright.
Stoked for minnaar, he had a totally killer run, so smooth.

I don't like how it happened - I was thinking more of a crash - but still, stoked for Minnaar.
wooo minnaar! so awesome! stoked to see Smith hold on to that last podium spot too!
Good for Greg, it has been a while for him. Anyone sure Gwin's issue was chainguide related? Interesting to note that Greg and Gwin were both on the same guide.
yeah tough to make the argument that he took himself out though haha, mechs can happen to anybody
edit: also, props to rude for picking up the pace. 2nd at worlds seems to be a trend for junior american boys. Hopefully he can break the trend next year and snag a 1st.

doesn't appear to have been a guide issue this time:
‏@Jillkintner
" @TraceyHannah: Mick said gwins brakes came to the bars "
Makes sense as he was still pedaling in sections.
Double props for Richie, better run looked like the first before he was red flagged
i predict more M820 brakes to hit the market soon
the last time he had an issue, the chain popped back on and he was able to continue pedaling

is gwin on the full production brakes now? i thought i'd seen a pic of him from one of the recent WC's where he was still running the proto's while everyone else appeared to be on the production model.i predict more M820 brakes to hit the market soon
Probably, since they were on the Worlds winning bike
Did anyone see the girl that crashed on the START gate?
After seeing that my list of "things so embarassing I'd shoot myself" got a new leader. Poor girl.
Yeah i liked that line too.
Bad luck for Gwin. He would have smashed it. Also, what's up with Brosnan? Nasty crash from him. Looked like he dislocated his shoulder...
This track is just not good for him.

Peaty and Needles going for it, leading the splits, then throwing it away. Bummer for those guys
