It's a brand new track and its looking pretty amazing so far. It's technical and steep, how a downhill track should be. Looking forward to getting on a bike tomorrow and seeing how it rides. The boys (CRC teammates) were saying how dusty it was before, but now we're looking at quite a few slippery sections, but overall the dirt's looking pretty good for soaking up the water and most parts look grippy.- Sam Hill, Team CRC / Nukeproof |
The track's awesome... It's long - taken us an hour and a half to walk down so far and I think it's around 4.30 in the dry on the bike. It'll be hard on the arms because mostly it's steep, but I don't think it's that rough. The dirt's soft really so that could save the arms a little bit. The short flat at the start could be a good chance to get into your rhythm before getting tipped into the steep stuff.- Mick Hannah, Team Hutchinson UR |
It's definitely gonna be a physical one. Quite flat at the start - it's short, but it's at altitude so it gets the lungs going, then it just keeps on getting steeper. It's looking mint, I'm excited to ride it, but it is going to be physically demanding that's for sure.- Josh Bryceland, Team Santa Cruz Syndicate |
It's my first time seeing the track...it's absolutely nuts. Long, fast, steep it's got a bit of everything really, so definitely gonna push the riders to their absolute limits. The length of it is gonna be the first challenge because it's gonna be tough to remember it. There doesn't seem like there's much let up, just intense the whole way down. I'm looking forward to it, but it's gonna be a heavy weekend. |
