Well.. Our local paper had an article.. But you would expect so since it's pmb... But you got to laugh at this shoddy journalism

 

Good grief... Steve "Hacksaw" Smith?!

 

FFS man. That's just not on.

Perhaps the Hub can do a short write up once they have a clip of that record breaking run...and post it with the article. This is normally done by Hubbers (and its usually all over Facebook), but not this time. Wanted to watch it again, and have been searching for the clip but cannot find it. 

 

The record breaking run happened last year and the video of it is at the end of the article I linked above.

 

This weekend's run merely extended his existing record and you can watch it half way down the page on Red Bull here. Red Bull seem to be keeping it to themselves for now. But we'll share it once they start allowing the public to embed it.

This really does need to be celebrated. He is not just our most successful cyclist but most likely one of our all time most successful sportsman. 

 

Perhaps if golf was an actual sport rather than a game Gary Player could compete for the title but since it isn't he can't.

Ja it's sad that all our national rugby, cricket and soccer "stars" are made up to be such a great deal (not sure why, as they are forever losing with zero BMT.......I digress), but sadly if you ask the average oke on street who Greg is, you will get a blank stare.

Yip.. I blame the mindless obsession with rugby and soccer in this country for everything.

Well I apologise if it was more of an unknown fact than I thought...I just assumed everyone knew he was chainsaw. iI was pretty evident if someone watched the finals on Sunday as everyone was branded with chainsaw. Greg held a canadian chainsaw flag up at the end and had a chainsaw on his kit.....
