Sounds as if they have been hard at work creating a tough track. Anyone seen it or ridden it?

 

Thinking of going to watch and trundle around with the family on our bikes but the weather is looking a bit grim...

What a race! Stefan Garlicki taking it, then Theo Erlangsen and Tiaan Odendaal. Brilliant riding, but rather lacklustre speculating... me and my cronies were the only ones making a real noise - I had an old hardtail frame and seatpost and a few stuffed wheels and bars... Lekka fun

I was wondering who was the guy with the rim and stick...

Lol. I loaned one rim and bar to some guys that were standing around the last corner before the road gap, but we were further up the track - by the mineshaft drop thing that everyone kept going for the wrong line and going off the track (thankfully bit bypassing a pole)...

What was the turnout like? I got last minute sniffles so iI skipped it. I heard the UCI wanted to test the venue for spectator support, given our turnouts at PMB.

Turnout was pretty okay in the end. I think a lot of people got scared off on account of the potential rainfall, but by the time the race runs started it was okayish.

Yes saw them near the road gap. They didn't really showed the mineshaft on the live stream, but was talking about it all the time.
