jannosmit Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 For those of you wondering where Stander and Flying Sauser is. They are riding but not racing. They are riding with other riders that are paying them to ride slowly. Correct on riding yes, but seems like their charity didn't work out this time around. Sauser's and Dan Hugo's partners withdrew because of crases beforehand or whatever. There were a second round of auctions, seemed like nobody bid. Sauser ride with Burry and Hugo with a Songo kid. Oliver Munnik I think is the only rider who is riding with a guy who auctioned on him.

Velouria Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 My Wines2Whales race report This event is maturing into one of the better events on the MTB calendar. The attention to detail is improving each year, and above all, they place the riders' interests first. Oh, and there is some fantastic riding too
