 I see those guys like Brosnan whip through the loose tree section without a care in the world, then you see the others struggle on the same section and realize just how difficult the track is and how good (and courageous) the top riders are...

Where's Sam Hill?
  • 4 2
 Next month there is the UCI starting, maybe he does not want to get injured before then !
  • 4 0
 He was still recovering from a crash

 He had ACL surgery in October, spent all off-season on the trail bike to get some strength back, and only got back on the DH bike last week.

 Why is their mud so dusty?

 You can't comprehend how steep this track is until you've seen it in person! It was awesome to watch the pros hammering some pretty blown out lines in their race run

 One thing about Troy that I know for sure. When he manages to grow a beard, he's gonna look like a fucking gnome. And I think we can all agree that will be a great thing.

 Tracy was looking amazing! Who else wants to see her take a few from Rachael this season?
  • 4 2
 Top work as per usual TY
So um can we move the wc there instead of cairns? Wink

Track looked amazing, typical Aussie dust everywhere and slippery.
  • 1 0
 This track looks amazing. Looks much more technical than the cairns wc track and steeper too
  • 2 0
 Pretty sure cairns is steeper mate. Just Mick's helmet cam didnt show it that well
  • 1 0
 Fair enough mate, il take your word for it. Micks cam def didnt do cairns much justice apart from maybe the top section. Do you think that this is a better track than cairns tho?? A lot of the riders seemed to think its their favourite in australia according to this video. Just looks a bit more testing. I am only going on what i have seen in videos tho

 I was talking to a guy who lives near the WC track and he said bright is much steeper
  • 4 0
 I rode the Bright track many years ago when it was quite simple. The slope of the hill is very steep - I was in survival mode for a lot of it.
  • 2 0
 Not many riders have had the opportunity to ride/race Cairns as it's only been rebuilt in the past year or so. Cairns is in tropical rainforest in the North, Bright is in the pines in the South.

 To be fair i was just making assumptions here. Never been anywhere near either track lol
  • 1 0
 It is steep and super loose. I didn't survive, haha. Crashed in practice injuring the wrist :-(
  • 2 0
 Unlucky mate, i doubt i would have got down that track at speed without totally wrecking myself too. Looks class tho
  • 3 0
 its great that we can hear the sound of those bikes being thrown around on what seems to me ,such a loose track
  • 4 0
 geeze what a track! id spend more time on my face than on my bike.

 You guys really need to get a better mic or turn the damn DB's down on your mic!
  • 1 1
 It's one guy Jordan lol
  • 10 2
 Sorry, I would usually go to the trouble of editing the audio but this is the best I can do for a turn around time of 6 hours after the race. Don't you have a volume dial?
  • 4 1
 why dont you have a whinge Pew ?

Get a life

this is an outstanding edit as usual! with 6hours turn around time !
