Shebeen Posted March 13, 2019 Share I see that even more money is being pumped into the famous Plum Pudding trail for the prologue. R80k was spent in this area in October/November last year and now its getting a further buffing. This section of trail is hands down the most expensive piece of MTB real estate there is. And its a hiking trail too. Priorities, priorities. it was very rideable as Theo shows the best lines here last year https://www.facebook.com/rushsportscycling/videos/2024679100905756/ this link works directly to le bookhttps://www.facebook.com/rushsportscycling/videos/2024679100905756/ Edited March 13, 2019 by juan pelota Nibali 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDW Posted March 13, 2019 Share His temper tantrums when the chips are down are well documented. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Oh ok, I see. Then I guess that means that Novak Djokovic, Zinedine Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo, and countless others, are mentally weak people with mental issues. I know about the incident with Anton Cooper, what other ones were there? Keen to look them up. Edited March 13, 2019 by HDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scuzzy Posted March 13, 2019 Share Well, we did not really know who Howards Grotts was when he arrived here last here, and they ended up winning. It's gonna be a tough race up front, there's good teams. Hopefully everybody will stay healthy so we can see a honest races amongst the top guys. arendoog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully everybody will stay healthy so we can see a honest races amongst the top guys.How did you not know who Howard Grotts was before he rode epic last year? he has done multiple epics, won the US national jersey multiple times, represented them at the Olympics etc. And he has been part of the specialized racing team for quite some time as well... He was a very well known mountain biker before he won epic last year... arendoog, DieselnDust, Nibali and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a very well known mountain biker before he won epic last year...not totally, I would say he was on the B-list before winning last year.He's only done 2 epics, in 2017 he was backup to jaro/susi and was 90 minutes back in 17th place when his partner pulled out on stage 6 - finished as an outcast. that's quite a jump to winning the next year.

He just had a weaker partner then. Lies , damn lies and statistics..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
