i predict minnarr at worlds. dude is peaking right now, likes the course, and the two frenchies are going to dial it back a tick to not risk the overall. and it'd be a great way to cap off a career. gwinn won't be (quite) up to speed yet, alas.
Not sure I'd bet a significant dollar amount on Minnaar at Worlds, but I'd love to see it, especially with all the "He's old, time to retire" talk at the start of the season. However, if the Frenchists go on strike, as they're known to do, I'd expect he and Troy to have a battle royal for the stripes this year. Don't believe Gwin will be a factor, he's not exceptional when he's be off the bike recently.
Really hoping Tracey can hold it together as well, she doesn't have the best history when she's the frontrunner. She should have won in Cairns, she had a big enough lead to stop and eat a Veginmite sandwich halfway down and still win, but ended up with a concussion and 2nd instead.
Back to The race in the land of cows and chocolate, another super fun weekend to watch. That's really all I got, unsurprising podiums for men women and girls, and a slight surprise for the wee gentlemen. Pierron is currently my favorite of the two Frenchies due to a) embracing his Jean Gerard persona, and b) gets a lot drunker than Bruni when he wins, so that's a win for all of us.
