The scoreboard says so, not us

 

And if 360- Songo had the bad luck on stage 1, what would the scoreboard be saying then?

I must admit, before the start of the race, my money was on Burry (but heart was with KE/DG). I think Burry is top class - world class in fact.

But the statements that 36one are in a 'completely different league' is a bit harsh I think? 13 seconds difference on the prologue, 2 seconds on stage 2 and 1 second on stage 3? Doesn't strike me as worlds apart?

This is not an attack on the riders personally, but the results from the past few years speak for themselves. In professional sports like this 13 seconds over 27km is huge.

360Life will probably win today's stage, but will not put any significant time into 36One.

KE and DG are great competitors...

Burry is a great amasador for MTB and South Africa...

 

They are clearly the two strongest teams.... let them race it out.. no politics!!!

Watched the re-run highlights package yesterday, they were interviewing Esther Suss and Sally Bingham, what machines. Sally is tough as all hell, dominating on a 26' hardtail, damn!

Pretty much the same thing, Songo in the lead.
