JCA12 Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 Just got home and turned the tv on. What happened to Rachel Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk nearly crashed badly after Stevie Smith's drop. She then decided to rather not risk it, because of her shoulder and still races to come.
ichnusa Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 Awesome race... Aaron next level. Regardless, support Greg for win in Val de Sol
Johnny Lawless Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 Seems like he went off track and didn't re-enter at the same place
MarcBurger Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 Apparently he is contesting that judgement and claims he hiked back up to where he came off before continuing (hence the 20 seconds).I don't know how negotiable the marshals would be. I would think their call would be final. Ridiculous how much stuff happened at the top section of the track but no footage/coverage. I understand that they need to summarise each run in order to fit them in, but a lot of people lost time at the top so there must have been something interesting going on up there.

I watched Tahnee's run again. That bike of hers just looked perfectly set up for those conditions. It tracked the ground really well and seemed to have a tonne of grip, unlike Rachel's Trek. Or maybe she just had the ride of her life.
NicoBoshoff Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 https://www.pinkbike.com/news/manon-carpenter-retires-from-dh-racing-2017.html Mr. Odinson, you OK?
Capricorn Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 there's another one gone the way of Ragdoll Ragot. But like Ragot, she made the right decision for her. http://singletrackworld.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2015/06/manon2.jpg http://i1.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article7961736.ece/ALTERNATES/s615b/Elite-Cyclist-of-the-Year-Manon-Carpenter.jpg So the big question: will she join Rachel at EWS?
mon-goose Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 any news on greg and the DQ? has it been contested and was there any change?
Odinson Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 https://www.pinkbike.com/news/manon-carpenter-retires-from-dh-racing-2017.html Mr. Odinson, you OK?
Odinson Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 https://www.pinkbike.com/news/manon-carpenter-retires-from-dh-racing-2017.html Mr. Odinson, you OK? Fuckin' hell! Not surprising though. Her head game has been off for quite a while and has been getting progressively worse as this season went on. Such a damn shame. It must've been tough for her to drop all her sponsors mid-season.
cfcjim Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 I expect you've all seen it a million times and I hope it's not a repost. So good...
