WHERE'S THE RAINBOW?
How do you fit two of every creature on Earth onto a wooden boat only 300 cubits long? What did all the other animals do wrong? Why should we bring mosquitoes aboard, and indeed, what the funk is a cubit? All very poignant questions after today, well done for asking. The rains came down from the heavens early on and there is little sign so far of reprieve from the Father's clear disapproval of our outdoor activities here in Cairns. Flooded pits, waterlogged camera bodies and prunified fingers will not stop this race, however. The show must go on. Some riders hit the showers early in disgust or despair, others stayed to session what is surely a course that simply can make no recovery before Saturday's race. If it continues to rain grip levels will arguably be improved on the alternative grease level of sunnier days ahead. We are locked in for a slip n slide and nothing mixes up the scoreboard more than steamed vision, deep puddles and super-slick roots. You don't get a rainbow, so take that silver lining and enjoy a very different Australia World Cup than we might have expected.
9pm is good. Because we are so far away for most of the season the races are on much later than 9pm here or are in the early hours.
So keen
But if its for the babez....then lift some weights Danny!!
Hot is 30+ this summer we had days hitting 48 (118.4F).
Cairns is crazy humid too though so athletes will be struggling, if you didn't notice that sunburn picture is not water, its blisters. The sun will smash you even at 21 up there.
And 650b wheels while we're at it.

The guy in the video below is 132lbs and deadlifts 600lbs.Downhill is very skill based too and when it comes to fitness while it is a powerful sport mostly we need endurance to stay strong for 4-5min, endurance generally does not require or build size. On Gee he is probably one of the most athletic built riders.
Either way watch the video size means nothing if you know how to train.
