Emily Batty at the MTB WC SA and London Olympics

[CAAD4]

Hi All

 

So I am also a finalist in the 2012 MTB WC Tshirt competition. My design is #6. I am supporting Emily Batty. A group of us will be going down to PMB this weekend to watch the racing and we will be wearing our custom t shirts supplied by Matt here on The Hub. We will do our best to get them signed by Miss Batty and of course, get a pic or two for the gallery.

 

So please vote for design # 6.

In case you have forgotten what she looks like, or don't know who she is, I have attached some images...

I got her bottle this weekend.

NEVER going to wash it.

 

She can also ride a little.

That bike looks too big for her

Not trying to be funny but that does look like a clown bike with those huge wheels and X-small frame.

I guess she has to ride what ever they give her.

Ah, man, Batty's gorgeous! And soooooooooooooo darned approachable! Had the pleasure of chatting to her after the race on Saturday.

I'm guessing the one pic was during training and the other during race day. Her forks changed.

Were you one of the guys with the 'Emily drives me batty' shirts that accosted her after the prize giving? Thought it was classic that she had time to take some pics with her fans and sign some autographs. Great chick!

Very observant! My pics were on the Saturday so Splat's must have been from practice.

She was not even out of breath after the race. The DH guys could hardly talk for 30 min after. She is obviously extremely fit, she does look it anyway!!

That was us! She was delighted to see our shirts. Her Manager was stunned... Those pearls and red shoes certainly are pretty.. This picture was taken when we bumped into her going over the bridge, on the way to the start. Podium pics to follow..
