Cedric on his carbon V-10... The chances are high that shortly after this picture was taken Cedric laid out a out footed table during his practice run. Who out there saw his moves at least weekend's mud-fest?! Thanks for keeping it fresh, Cedric!

James Rennie with the double foot/hand plant maneuver
Aaron Gwin is looking to improve on his 9th place finish at Champery last weekend and this fast and rough Italian track may be just the place to do it. Look at the eyes!
There is a good chance that Brendan can show up at your local track and ride lines that you've never even seen on his first blind run down... and out whip you to boot. Have a look at his front chainring - more info to come!
