nigelhicks Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 The spectacle that was Fort William World Champs 2007 ...
Stretch Posted June 3, 2015 Author Posted June 3, 2015 ----------- TO FORT BILL .... hill of the bog, rain and midges ... I'd say Aaron, Loic or Bryceland for the mens win, but I think the first 2 have a better chance of top step. With Rachel crashing at BDS last weekend and hurting her wrist - I'd say Manon is ladies favourite, with Emmiline biting at her high heels i think gwinn too..he is looking pretty stellar. My heart still says greg then the rat i am wildcarding tahnee to take her first win...she beat manon there a few weeks back and was (0.07sec behind rachel) as part of the BDS...although it was a shortened track
nigelhicks Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 part of the BDS...although it was a shortened track Dude - that was a dog show of an event, having to push up to the wall ride and go from there ... I would have also ridden my Enduro bike like Fairclough and a number of others did. The track from the Wallride through to the bottom is flat! ... So as far as im concerned that doesnt count for anything ... Would be cool for Tahnee, but I think Manon's stronger in the steeps up top.
Headshot Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Ya cant wait for this one. Hoping Greg is healed up and fast but the new guns are going to be hard to beat. Then again, DH is unpredictable compared to XCO so who knows. One mistake and you've lost ten places...
Eddy Gordo Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Hmm what a sweet track. Looks a bit like tokai, and the top section could be from the mast down
RocknRolla Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Bruni, hopefully have matured enough to keep his head in the right space for this season.

LazyTrailRider Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 I'd say Aaron, Loic or Bryceland for the mens win, but I think the first 2 have a better chance of top step. Yeah, I reckon Gwin in this case. Fort Bill is a seriously physical track, which suits him.
G00SE Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Is the DH broadcast on Supersport again this year or will it have to be watched online? Should be on SS7.I prefer the redbull.tv feed anyway, so I am going to be streaming it.
Grebel Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Erzberg is on the same day @ 11:40am also on RedbullTV Going to be an epic day...!!!
Mntboy Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 And here's my pick for the win in the ladies race.......... although I'm sure these three ladies will be super amped to do well at home. .....
Stretch Posted June 4, 2015 Author Posted June 4, 2015 Should be on SS7.I prefer the redbull.tv feed anyway, so I am going to be streaming it. the first one in france dstv kept going to adverts in the middle of runs...mot annoying!

Nick Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Manon's crash might be the biggest OTB I've ever seen. Congrats to Rachel.
