- Thread starter ph4se_1
- Start date
Yeah, good on the mongrel. I'm more impressed with Glenn Haden, spends next to no time on a DH bike compared to the rest of the field and still wins nationals and smokes a filed of paid riders. Yeah Crusty!AWESOME. please discuss
Not sure how stoked Romano will be on Wyn winning though, jersey or not? Also another top result for the daddy of NZ DH Nathan Rankin.
So many top quality NZ riders on the world stage now, it's close to being the most competitive domestic series in the world. Amazing stuff when you think of A) how small NZ is in size and population and B) how far far away it is from the rest of the world.
Can't wait. Being a team manager this year for wyn, rankin and oconnor will be interesting.
Ha, you'll still get in more trouble then them 3.
who is their team manager?
Distinct possibility.
Heres the Dirtmag report/results

No, I'm pretty sure you're wrong, I'm pretty sure he just proved he WAS the fastest at a huge stacked race. I think thats the point of this thread, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Oh I am, and it's still a priority. Doubling up on some things!

what bike is Wyn riding? Is that a Turner? is he out of a sponsored ride again?! that surprises me given the exposure the boy gets. It's like he the new Cedric... someone ought to catch on to that...

if you watch the video, you'll see he is in the "Wide Open" camp and they are sponsored by Turner
Nice run Dan Sims.
What frame was Rankin on? Foes?

WYN ON WIDE OPEN
Wide Open is pleased to announce that Wyn Masters will be riding for Team Wide Open this summer. Coming from a strong World Cup season Wyn will team up with young junior Jay Barrett from Hastings.
\"We needed a DH rider for the season with Matt Scoles re signing with his Italian team starting 1st November, and I new Wyn was at a loose end for our summer so we jumped at the chance to get him on Wide Open ,\" said Matt Whitaker, Director of Wide Open. \"We are excited to have someone of his talent and personality on the team\"
Wyn is currently working overseas and will soon be returning home for the summer and will race all NZ Nationals and local events.
You can follow Wyn\"s progress at www.wideopen.co.nz & http://wynmasters.blogspot.com/ and Wyn\"s famous WynTV http://mpora.com/naki_dher/"
after reading that Id have to say no.
He's on Darryn Hendersons Monster/Intense team. M9.
How come no Blenky or Leov?

just curious. how long does it take to drive from the top to the bottom of NZ?
GoogleMaps tells me one day and three hours.
i thought it was Wyn Masters that won.
last year he did.
The thread was about the 2010 national champs which Wyn won, the latest bump was in relation to the first round of our 2011 national series, which Blinky won. Our national champs are in March I beleive in Justins home town of Dunedin.
Depends on what mood the Cooks Straight is in. If she's not happy, ferries aint going nowhere. All going well, two full days of driving.
On Rankin and the M9, saw him on his frist day on it in Rotorua a couple of weeks ago, he was, well mildy stoked would be an understatement.
