It will not be friday in Australia. Australia is close to the earliest time zones. so it will Be saturday night I believe. And also for those of you who don't know what those abbreviations mean I'm pretty sure this is what they are but don't hold me to it:
Pacific Daylight Time
Eastern Daylight Time
Greenwich Mean Time which is a time zone standard located in Greenwich, London
United Kingdom
Central European Time
Then that incorrect Australia time

Dallll (Sep 14, 2012 at 16:04)

you da man thanks

wesdadude (Sep 14, 2012 at 18:42)

Indeed, it will be Saturday night in Australia. For Perth (UTC+ Cool

it will be 8:15pm. Having three time zones in Australia sucks.

+ 2

Waldon83 (Sep 15, 2012 at 0:39)

Sucks..... at least you can watch it and still go out! I have to stay home to watch it on a Saturday night, that's the gayness

RorySmith (Sep 15, 2012 at 3:20)

surely greenwich mean time and United kingdom should be the same? not 1 hour appart.
seeing as Greenwich is in the UK?

neimbc (Sep 14, 2012 at 15:34)

On Sat because the WC XC ended - so no XC race on Sat - so they moved the DH to Sat. It's all good. And for the life of me - I say World Champs should ALWAYS be at the end of the WC season - not before it's ended.

samminett (Sep 14, 2012 at 19:53)

put the xc's on sundays from now on and keep the dh on saturdays now i can watch it live

Hm, when you actually think about it, spatial time zones would be in 3D. You're probably better off here man lol. Just learn the acronyms (you too Pinkbike!!)

austinaw (Sep 15, 2012 at 11:24)

you have time zones when there is a sun and an orbiting planet...... Am I right?

mtnbkrforlife (Sep 14, 2012 at 17:26)

About how long do these races last? This is gonna be my first time watching an entire race. I'm getting up at 8 in the morning to watch it live but I gotta leave at 10. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!

+ 2

miff (Sep 14, 2012 at 17:47)

It's pretty long to be fair. Women are first and that's about 40min worth, then the men takes a good 2+ hours from there. You wouldn't miss all too much - plus there's a replay available straight after.

mtnbkrforlife (Sep 14, 2012 at 19:15)

Alright, thanks for the help!

surfct (Sep 14, 2012 at 12:33)

interesting to see that flat handlebars are kind of disappearing at least on hill's and macdonald's bike makes me wonder how slack a bike really has to be - anyway stevie for the win on this west coast trail! ups wrong page, whatever who cares

+ 2

lennoxrider (Sep 15, 2012 at 7:39)

flat handlebars and slackness are not related. Flat bars came in because of ride height. Now everyone runs zero stack headsets and their forks quite far down on the crowns so riser bars are needed again.

Greenwich mean time is the standard 00.00 upon which other times are based. During summer as you know we move our clocks forward 1 hour, to British summer time 01.00. During winter we are at GMT
