It is not only the nice weather, which is quite the opposite of our horrible conditions in the UK early in the year. It is also the really good riding over there that motivates me to go there every year with friends and my brother. The trails there are not so good for real, hard, bike testing, but rather for getting the feeling back on your bike. |
Basically, we shot at three different spots around Los Angeles, Ventura and Laguna Beach earlier this year. There is tons of excellent riding, perfect for riding downhill, but also trail riding. It is very different to all places I know in the UK. There are no lifts or infrastructure as we know it. You have to shuttle a lot, ride or push your bike, but it is definitely worth it. I also do a lot of XC riding there and I train a lot with my road bike too. |
I can't wait to be back into World Cup race mode again. It kicks off at Fort William, which is not my strongest track, but it is always an amazing atmosphere. Plus the UK fans are some of the craziest of all. With the support from my fans there, I desperately want to land on the podium. For 2013, a World Cup win is the biggest goal and I'm training hard to achieve it. |

The power difference between flats and clips is nowhere near 30%, if you know how to ride flats. For the level of riding these guys are on, it's maybe 5%, max. That can still make the difference between the podium and not making top 10, when the times are so close, though.
good vibes,,

Guy's such a beast and such a well rounded rider. He may not be on the podium as much as some racers would like, but he's just such a great rider and appears so down to earth and so lacking in "cockiness" that you can't help but root for the guy aye. That "Enduro in Santa Cruz" vid where he hits that HUGE natural gap will forever be burned into my memory.
