stoked to see him on the top step!
Respect.
Bruni with that 1 second over Gwin out of thin air and then BOOM! The GOAT does it again! Holy crap!
You definitely saw Dak make up a lot of time there, with his BMX background.
What happened to Dante?
Gwin: “piecing together small things, starting to come together”
At the top
Greg: “hold my beer”
but why is no-one talking about how amazingly Matt Walker is doing this year ???
it's not just a one off run, he's reliably right at the pointy fast end of everything and it's like he's invisible or squeezing into the top 30
even Warner seemed to mention him only as an after thought when he and Claudio had talked about everything else and were looking for small print to mention
YEAAAAAH Matt !!
I get it, its for free and we should be happy that there is any coverage at all, but does this media team not have any aspirations at all to deliver quality content?
Ooooh shit nasty crash from Parton....hope she is alright
Adding in a couple of DV cams from the nineties to soothe our eyes from hypersmooth and crisp video we’re used to now.
Actually surprised that there isn’t a single portrait oriented camera.
The man is incredible!
A few days ago i've seen some pictures from his bike and its visable that he hás some kind of cable connected to his right grip.
My guess is that under the cover is just a simple hsc servo set up that cranks the hsc lever up to max. An he did the same to his fork by hand
Loris acted just like a spoiled kid by not congratulating his teammate for his win. Losing is tough but it´s also part of the game.
Excelent race!!!
come on, the track had plenty of gnar and it was well portrayed in the live feed, with all its limitations. Maybe when 5G is a real thing we can dream of full track coverage with wireless cameras...
What was a little dissapointing is seeing those huge jumps after the bridge being skipped by the faster chicken line, next year that section could be a super cool rythm section, just a sugestion!
This is the correct list:
1. GREG MINAAR
2. EDDY MERCKX
3. BERNARD HINAULT

The Elite Men will start at: CEST 14:45
Elite Women start at central european wintertime, while elite men start at central european summertime? Sexual discrimination?
That one was a cake taker in the cringle worth crash category. Made my neck hurt just watching.
I mean come on, he was rolling slow without jumping and still would made a podium in the Women category.
Okay they have fun, but stop giving them money for a below amateur level.
none of those women would beat me but thats irrelevant.
Whats relevant is : they are not worthy of any sponsorship and they take away money from a good junior who could ride in top team.
It's a pain to watch them 'race', nothing wrong from them, but the industry should stop this trend. Like in motocross. A joke.
Whats next ? pay a black women who cant ride a bycicle to have color in the ranks ?
you stupid mono thinking extremist. anyone who doesnt think like you should not speak ahaha. Get another round of trump and beat it.
