Sidewinder. Posted January 27, 2014 Share Claudio, any chance we're gonna start getting some thehubsa video coverage of these kinds of events? I mean even the bloody aussies have their races covered It would be great for the sport locally and for thehub to create some of it's own content.

Claudio Posted January 27, 2014 Share We'd love to and if a partner for video production comes along somewhere down the line, then yes! In terms of our own content, we are working hard to increase it. Especially this year we will be producing more reviews, cool features, race reports from person perspectives, bike builds, and more. It's going to be cool, so keep an eye out in the news section for now for more content. Sidewinder. and Hairy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even just from an exposure point of view-iirc thehub has some impressive visit numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headshot Posted January 27, 2014 Share No Rika Olivier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headshot Posted January 27, 2014 Share I see Rika actually won the Elite women in just over 3 mins. Claudio, your results seem to be wrong in that category? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted January 27, 2014 Share I see Rika actually won the Elite women in just over 3 mins. Claudio, your results seem to be wrong in that category? The results were directly from Cycling SA with the full sheet here: http://www.cyclingsa.com/App_Resources/Uploads/FILE00003127.pdf Perhaps they've been updated / corrected since the press release. Where did you see Rika's result? (I saw her flying down during practice runs and wondered why she wasn't on the results list) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karate Monkey Posted January 27, 2014 Share No Rika did not race EW as she wants points for masters world champs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karate Monkey Posted January 27, 2014 Share Final result sheet signed off by UCI Commissaire and posted by WP Downhill https://www.dropbox.com/s/h4ktr6z5cxwpt8t/African%20Continental%20Champs%202014%20-%20DHI%20Results%202.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch Posted January 27, 2014 Share I see Rika actually won the Elite women in just over 3 mins.

Stretch Posted January 27, 2014 Share so there was only one womans elite competitor for the entire continent? I need to go read all the comments from Wyatts thread about the state/future of womens downhill because this is most concerning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
