Santa Cruz once again had Greg Minnaar’s World Championship winning bike on display at Interbike. This year’s win was even more special than last year at Leogang, as Minnaarwon on home soil in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. This year they made the decision to clean up the bike, which would have made transport and customs a lot easier.

Totally! ....but.....one negative i had when watching this is that there is a lot less crowd than I thought there was...I think the guys are going to have to look at the pricing structure in 2014 to attract more people
