Connor fearon had a pic up on his instagram of a carbon operator (with no graphics) and #650 in the description... since been taken down.

Also who are everyone's 'sleeper' pic for this first race... i.e. someone who is going to have a breakout performance which is above what they have previously achieved... I'm thinking Mike Jones

It will be interesting to see what Kona bring to the 650B game. I love my 2014 Operator. It would be cool to see someone like Wyn Masters get up there this season. He put in a pretty solid time at Crankworx against a few big names.

I reckon it's a Fearon kind of feeling for me. Actually, I reckon the top five with be loaded with Aussies, Hill for the win.

That's a good call, Sam and Troy definitely up there and I'm really hoping Condog pieces it all together, I think will.

That really sucks, I hope Sam pulls through for race day, would be a real shame if his missed this track. At least there's a whole bunch of young Aussies capable of mixing it with the top 10.

Carn' Troy!!

What a sick track!

DH is still by far and away the ultimate form of bike riding. No wait, it's the best sport in the world! I could be biased but I doubt it.

Nearly teared up when I read the news about Hill. Fit and healthy you'd think he'd be pretty hard to beat on that track. All about Troy and Connor now, can't wait!

What's invisible and smells like hay?
what times the race on (On Sunday I presume) hopefully it isn't too late.

Anyway, this track looks freaking brutal, was just watching that raw video.
