Bazinga

I must also add.. while others have had to improve skills to match Nino, Nino has also done a lot to improve his climbing ability, a few years ago the long climbs in xco was where Julian and Kulhavy got the edge, he has done a lot to close that gap.

 

To be the best you have to be a master at all.

What is the "unwritten rule" of not overtaking at the WP's?

 

Seems to have caught Sauser out??

No unwritten rule , if you stop ;you stop.
