You heard it here first

He looks strong enough to win. Called it!
I am hoping like hell you are right.:single_eye:

BUT the Champery track has been sanitised quite a lot, with berms at many points now, so people are not being spat off the track as much. And its not particularly rough at all. It is no longer the wild track that Sam had his amazing run a few years ago. Its still STEEP, but has been made more user friendly.

Cool, maybe Sam won't crash in he's race run this time then . . .
 
I'm thinking with such a steep, tech track, a larger (i.e. longer wheel base) bike wouldn't suit.

Sam rides a small frame. I dont think its track specific. His Pink frame from earlier this year was sold on Ebay a couple of months ago. It too was a small. TB rides an extra small.
