Cav' Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 The frenchie Bresset is tearing the rest of the field apart. The german in second place looks like a man!

Howcome quiet a few of the riders are walking down the rock garden, they riding 29ers isnt it supposed to be better over rocks? Excuse my stupidity, but what does "That tyre pressure is on the side of the tyres" mean? Really, I don't know what that means? Eddy Gordo 1
Eddy Gordo Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 They aRe running the recommended tyre pressures. However maybe for this course the higher pressures are better! I know alot of riders run low pressure

Eugene Oppelt Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Smit, 2008 champ, did well to defend her title.She crashed on the rock garden as a key moment in the race.
Eugene Oppelt Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Neethling finishes 13 mins behind the winner.Batty @ 10 mins down.

jannosmit Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 I think it was awesome experience for Candice just to finish this race and not being pulled out. It will help her a lot in the future.
