Yeah, he was crazy for thinking he was gonna make that turn...

Did anyone see the guy eat it at 64km/h and get up to finish the race?[/Quote]

i dont think he meant to go so far off the jump, cos he landed well down from wher everyone else was. and he wouldve been well more than 4 seconds up like you sed before. he was 9 seconds up before the last split.

dont think it was the turn that caught him out, it was the camber on like the grassy bit that they were going over.

and yeah seen that guy go over, an aussie i think, he done well to carry on. ther was some big crashes earlier on aswel. i watched all 3 hours of it lol womens an all. [/Quoten]#




yeah i saw that. bryn atkinson, no armour or nothing 0.0

i cant believe the luck sam hill had. 10 sseconds ahead and on final turn he washed out. he lost 15 seconds or something and still came 3rd. he would have destroyed the rest of the field if it werent for that. unlucky

That was similar to Greg Minaar's run last year. He crashed and broke his shoulder on his run ad came 4th (In the wet). He would have won it if he hadnt crashed...

Man, Graves had such bad luck the last 2 years. Remember his flat in the final race last year? I want to find a post interview.

I wonder if any other brother & sister have ever been World Champions in cycling in the same year? Or any sport for that matter.

Video of Gees run, so awe-inspiring. Watch his back wheel on some of those corners, roosting a drop corner at god-knows what speed!!!

Sam is fast, but he isn't consistent (as the crash shows)
