Gotta love the MK/KE combination ... The Epic just got real !! @FedGroupItec are going to be the ones to watch. With Rabie & Mac for backup .... Could the strategy be better ?!

Not exactly ... Haven't you heard ?

Maybe it's just nice to have a team instead of rolling solo ?

I hear you ... it has been kinda fun debating who is a nicer guy ;-)... which actually has nothing to do with the whole incident... Lets talk about who is gonna win Sani 2 C .... Maybe Brandon and Max ... if Brandon doesn't switch Max off his bike (he he he ... just kidding!)

Oh come on ... so C for serious ! Brandon admitted that what happened out on the course was wrong from both sides ... we should all be able to laugh at our mistakes ??

Agreed on the blog ... didnt see any whinging tho. As for the face book group ... that was seriously funny and Im sure just a joke - It really wasnt that bigger deal ... thats the point. The whole thing has been blown WWWWAAAAYYYYY out of proportion. But thats what happens when the punishment doesnt fit the crime like Sean Badenhorst pointed out .... Roel Paulison / Christophe Sauser at World Marathon Champs ... that incident didnt attract punishment as harsh as DQ and that incident was witnessed by thousands of spectators and was live on Eurosport!!

There are alot of comments going backwards and forwards about who is the nicer person ... I assume these comments are based on the writer knowing both Kevin and Brandon ??

precisely...take it up with the person afterwards ... specially if you were both in the wrong. That has always been the way of the mountain bikers. Any issues in the past were resolved like men ! Having raced for 14 yrs I speak from experience.

Is this where MTB is going to ? .... A bit mellodramatic wouldn't you say ? "An eye for an eye"? This is certainly not a new concept nor has MTBiking been exempt from this scenario in the past. The only new aspect in the Barberton showdown is the tittle tale protest and the questionable judgement shown by the presiding officials. DQ for retaliation ?? Food for thought ... MTN rider vs DCM rider ...DCM 1 2 and 3.... No MTN rider on the podium.... MTN new sponsor of the series ... ?? How partial was the decision?
