nigelhicks Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) Before i get to this though Was reading through Dirts questions to the pros I really laughed at this comment from Emilie Siegenthaler Emilie Siegenthaler: You could have asked me How is Brendan Fairclough as a team mate, and I would have told told that he’s a pain in the a**….

Guest Omega Man Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) You've gone for the safe choices there fella. I've got a feeling about Danny Hart. He's looking trim and injury free. I don't think he'll be able to put the power down like the big boys tho. In the men. Yes I've gone safe too. 1. Ginger2. Minnaar3. Gee4. Hart5. Stevie Smith Dunno about the Ladies. Keep an eye out for Bellvile's own Johan Potgieter. He's on a proper team with proper support this year. I reckon he's on for the IXS title this year. I predict that I'll be in front of my TV with a glass of red. I might just have the jacuzzi bubbling away in the background. Edited June 6, 2013 by Omega Man ZION 1
rock Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Gwin.....but I'm hoping there's some newbie straight out of the blue - like McConnel in the XC.......just to get the season off to a 'wake up'....... also hoping that newbie is called Minnaar...... Prediction: Neethling on the box. Behan 1

Guest Omega Man Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Is it being shown on any of the supersport channels? Or only live streaming on the net?Hahaha. Funny guy. the only mountain biking shown on DSTV are fat men in tights riding on dirt roads. BikeMarketcoza and Brian Fantana 2
jcza Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Only one male rider has won the Fort William DH World Cup more than once. True that Minnaar has won it 5 times?
rock Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 was reading those stats today, incredible 57 podiums for Minnaar more than anyone ever......he should take over Peats win record this season right?
Brian Fantana Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Hahaha. Funny guy. the only mountain biking shown on DSTV are fat men in tights riding on dirt roads. +1 on that. RedbullTV has the only mtb shows that I want to watch.
Guest Omega Man Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 was reading those stats today, incredible 57 podiums for Minnaar more than anyone ever......he should take over Peats win record this season right?Ja. Pretty incredible. For me the thing that sets him apart is that he always seems to ride within himself. He hardly ever throws himself into the undergrowth. And every time a rider has come along and raised the bar (Hill, Ginger) he's been the one to chase them down.
niterider Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Super-excited for this. Hoping that Stevie Smith and Bulldog can get on the podium. ZION 1
Guest Omega Man Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Holy ****. Pottie 35 seconds back in timed practice. Ok any thoughts of wanting to be a pro are officially over.
