 Minaar's '' we got smoked...'' statement. This guy has character, skills and the balls to speak bare truth

 So the recipe for Pasta Carb-Minaar-Ah is penne, bacon, eggs, yogurt and a pinch of salt and pepper? Not sure I'm brave enough to make this.

 How have these boys escaped food poisoning with that random cooking!

 sometimes people always wonder why Minaar so smooth and calm, I think could be the food he ate.

 Please do share some pit-level BB setup tricks.. that was cool. He did say automatic transmission fluid didn't he?

 Yeah but would it really matter for DH? Still cool as hell though.

 Vital had an interview with Polish Pete after Gee won World's last year, and he had basically removed all of the seals on Gee's bike so that everything would spin as friction-free as possible for one run. If Greg's mechanic will spin the BB bearings until they are just about worn out, then it just shows how serious these guys are about fractions of a second, especially at Windham where the times are ludicrously tight (except for Gwin).

 I agree. I find any technical info fascinating, esp. when it comes from top level mechanics.

 Peaty once request all his bearings grease to swap with lube.

 That's an old school track(velodrome) racing trick. Doesn't last long but has no resistance!

 That was slick... and god bless SC's threaded BB which made it look easy.

 I was pretty into the BB set up on Minaar's bike. Oil bath instead of grease. Interesting.

 Not sure they aim for longevity here, I'd keep the grease if, like me, you can't afford a BB a week lol

 Sammy telling them to man up !!!! bunch of pu$$'s off the left ... I was there its true lol... it was insane section after watching about 1000 descents from there in practice/ qualifying and race, It was a MAN up section were the BIG BALLS DOMINATED. . Only a few went beyond the limit mocked out,, out of / in control ,,,in there and rode it out like animals. i enjoyed that section so much and for brief moments seen the look in these monsters eyes, some i seen their lives flash chopping threw the middle..
There were only two crashes there I male who's ok, and the second a female..
Unfortunately Girl you ate shit bad in that practice run,,and got bucked out of control when you hit the first lip and landed wrong, then got bucked sideways off the second. I was defiantly in a state of shock looking at it. and happy we got to stop the next 2 riders coming down before you became road kill... Indefinably a super hard slam at gravity dropping speed.....I really HOPE your OK who ever you are !!!!!!!!! AGAIN SAMMY WELL SAID...... Pleasure seeing you ride !!!
