I want to like Gee, but he reminds me of a real estate agent I had to deal with once...

He presents a civil face to the people he wants to. Not quite so nice to normies.

Yesterday?

I thought Daprela binned it at Nationals before Leogang, along with Amaury?

*edit, that was French Cup round.

I didn't see what I did there.

But I see what you did there

Not World Cup but Greg Minnar doing well in the IXS cup. Vali Holli missed her race as got a flat walking to start hut. Just not her year. @moorey better start getting those 29er wheels built.

Already engraved her name on the overall. May still buy a 29” tyre

I'm not sayin I'm excited about Maribor this weekend, I'm just sayin....

Yep. Agreed.

I am not a colourful bike guy but this throwback 50 years GT looks unreal

Track looks great except the last bit to the finish.

Doesn't look like it'll suit Troy, unless he straps a couple of bags of cement to his bike to increase his gravity.

Should do ok in the woods but those flat out grass areas may be tricky.

Bernard Kerr, Wyn Masters and some others out with broken/fractured bones...

Fast and dusty track.

How dare you.
