WooHoo!

 

When does the seeding come out? Do I need a CSA licence? What is the weather forecast? Do I need 26 inch wheels or 29?

 

Don't bother to enter if you do not have a good seeding as the slower riders are going to frustrate you on the narrow singletrack.

 

Race packs are rumoured to be good though.

Although cyclists, pfft... Taking away the starry eyed love, most top pro's have been naughty at some point.

I would love to go and watch, but I don't currently have a pair of Salomon trail running shoes to pair with my brightly coloured, calf high cycling socks and mirror-glassed Oakleys. Will this be ok?

In this day and age I can't believe you could so openly objectify women.. sis! I suppose you eat meat and drink dairy and recognise gender labels as well!  :ph34r:

 

I'm just stoked the Poodle has recovered enough to make it...  :whistling:

 

But team Groustra all the way in the main event... I heard the guy running his bottles and wheels in the pits was HOT!
