Watched the race on net, impressed with Dan McConnell's result considering he started a fair way back at the start and got caught up in the first bottleneck, Hopefully next round he gets to start closer to the front. He's in good form

Emilly Batty is cute

Congrats to cSixx riders Burry Stander 2nd in the Mens and James Reid 4th place at the Pietermaritzburg World Cup under 23

Both were running the new cSixx Carbon XC Guides



cSixx tested at the highest levels of competition whether DH, XC or 4X, just one less thing to worry about.

Emilly Batty is cute

Yes she is.
She just needs to learn how to smash the A line down the rock garden. She got schooled by the Russian.

It looked like Baty was being ridden by the bike, the 29er just looks too much for her to handle through the tech rock sections??

I agree, she does look little on that big bike. However, I have to keep remembering she came 2nd at the World Cup... so clearly she can ride it ok, just let down in that rock garden by her confidence I'd say.
