I think he's pretty awesome tbh, he's rad at 4X & DH and sick at trails too, that picture of him on Vital made him appeal to me even more, you know, down to earth and working for it Smile



About the t-bone, I do remember him hitting people all over at Bromont but I was too excited that passes were actually going on I didn't care.

Have you seen him ride at Post Office? Man is down with the trails thing. Super dumped 3s, big whips, a frontie in one video Cool


4X Q'ing still going on, Prokop is in first, Gravesy 2nd and Graf third. Mitch crashed last corner but apparently still might scrape through

Not gonna do another edit, qualifying finished, here's what Dirt had to say:

[Quoten]Michal Prokop put in a flying time of 39.418 edging out Jared Graves by 0.214 and David Graf (who?!) in third 0.596 off the pace.

Will Evans, top Brit in 17th and Pat Campbell Jenner 22nd and Tom Dowie 27th just behind freeride flannel wearer Martin “The Machine” Soderstrom.

The rain caught out a few including Mitch Ropelato who went down on the last corner but has scraped through in 64th.

In the womens Romana Labourkova clocked a 45.605 ahead of Anita Molcik and Anneke Beerten with Katy Curd getting a great 4th spot.[/Quoten]

Dan actually got 4th, so Evans is not the top Brit.

And it looks like Blinky is gonna win Qualifying in the mens by 0.2 over Greg.
Gwin third,
Lehikoinen 4th
Gee 5th,
Matt Simmonds 6th.

Brendan back in 9th.

Peat right down in 22nd so far, and is likely to move back further.

I'm curious... why did Peaty go from top 5 to flop in the space of the off season? No training? Unfit? Too old? I have no idea.
