Randoms II - World Cup DH, Lenzerheide
 |
 Not wanting to point the finger of blame, but I assume this happened in the aftermath of the 'Non-Qualies Party' |
 |
| The Ghost XC team have cooling vests lined up for today's 32 degree sweat-fest. |
 |
| Bryceland's fat finger, post dislocation and race run. |
 |
| Ivan the Superfan's tan line has been cultivated to a crisp line. At the after party everyone was treated to a full view. |
 |
| Even some of the top factory riders don't get fresh rubber for race runs. Either that or this guy loves the back brake. |
 |
| Eddie Masters and his entourage are like locusts. Within minutes they were in and out of the press office, stripping the refreshment area of all nourishment. |
 |
| Great to see this guy back on the scene. Eliot Jackson announced early retirement a few years ago due to asthma related health issues impacting upon his performance. |
 |
| He was using these Nose Magnets from Asterisk. Stick two magnets on your nose, and the opposing pair clip in to your goggles, literally pulling your nostrils open for increased air flow. |
 |
| This was not a sight any of us want to see, especially the racers lining up at the top of the hill. |
 |
| Will the UCI ever enforce the 'No lycra or tight fitting' clothing rule? Lot's of racers are wearing tailored race kit but Greg Williamson's shorts are super tight. |
 |
| Last minute weight saving. |
 |
| The real Josh Bryceland won the Santa Cruz after party last night. |
 |
| Two new profile pictures, sorted. |
 |
| Yet another randomly named part of the track. Still better than the 'Steps of Destiny' or similar from Leogang. |
 |
| It's even been too hot for flip flops this week. |
 |
| There was a lot of moaning from humans about the heat, but spare a thought for this chap. |
 |
| Deciding the track wasn't nearly hard enough, two riders decide to bring Dual back to the mainstream. |
 |
| I was forced to take a swig of suspicious holy water from the Flask of the Ten Commandments. |
 |
| You've goat to be kidding me. |
 |
| The signature footwear for the Bergamont guys, but strangely this model looks....good? |
 |
| An old go-kart pit trailer is now serving the unsuspecting trade team. |
 |
| Poor James Maltman, he came to Europe for a summer of travelling and racing. A broken arm on one hand and a shredded rotator cuff on the other means getting the first flight home to Australia. He was happy to stay in Europe but said he couldn't convince any of his travelling counterparts to take on wiping duties. |
 | I decided to frame case a rock. They moved out a rock on track and then I accidentally lined up my jump with a big rock instead of the little rock they took out, it didn't work out too well. Broke my arms and have to go home, bummer. - James Maltman |
 |
| They should have provided a bigger press office... |
