What happened with the womens race?

 

Langvad led most of the race from afar with Kate chasing (48s at one point) who eventually caught and overtook her, and won Gold. Kate rode an incredible race.

 

Emily and K8 were having fun & games  2/3rd for a while, but K8 eventually dropped her.

 

Jo!anda seemed slow from the start, came in 4th, didn't really seem to be her day.

She's gorgeous. 

 

 And clever, hardworking and loves mountain biking,. What a great role model.

Check the stem on the Scott, Myles would probably wet himself.

 

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

LOL. 

 

90mm effective length bar/stem combo. 

 

It's a lekker design. But too long for my tastes. Good thing Nino has the skills to overcome that tiller!

Sjoe what an end to what became an open season. I'm very chuffed for Emily, damn so many near misses, but it wasn't going to be today, but she pushed until she tasted blood and saw stars and wasn't embarrassed to say it. Shame it never happened for Jolanda, but that's what made it so exciting. Kate, pretty damn awesome, so lekker for the sport for a US rider to win. I agree with Kosmo, she's a great Taco eatin' ambassador for the sport. They are doing something right to combat their drought, with a few men up there too.

 

And Mariska in the top 20 is just amazing. So when are we seeing Thomus and Torpedo bikes here???

 

Nathrix you must be very chuffed...

Absolutely. Her and Emily are superb role models and ambassadors. As is Neff. 

 

But there's just *something* about Courtney
