Odinson Posted July 4, 2019 Share Predictions? Still leaning towards a Frenchy podium, with perhaps a Brit or even a Saffer thrown in there somewhere. I'm pretty sure Pierron will try his damndest to take the win, as it's a race on Commencal's home turf and Max Commencal will probably give a lekker bonus if he can pull it off. In regards to the ladies, I figure Hannah should be able to take it, with Cabirou, Hoffmann and Atherton in the mix too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping Loris can stay upright and think it's between him and the other 2 frenchies. I wouldn't mind any of them. My son is a huuuuge Bruni fan so I know who he will be rooting for. I even had to fork out a lot of money for a 100% Aircraft helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track walk article on PB shows him with a contraption on his wrist. Edited July 4, 2019 by Jacquers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capricorn Posted July 4, 2019 Share my heart desires Loris for the men's winner, and head says Rachel for the ladies.form book suggests Loic, Troy and Pierron, for the mens, and Rachel or Tracey for the ladies. The rest are chasing tail-end of the podium.Nina or Cabirou for 3rd. But i think the latter has the edge in that little battle.

MrJacques Posted July 4, 2019 Share I was hoping that Myriam Nicole would be back by now. Must have been a serious injury to keep her out for so long. Tahnee seems to be recovering well, might even be ready for world champs at the end of August. Edited July 4, 2019 by Jacquers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headshot Posted July 4, 2019 Share Its a bit of a lottery this year. I think Greg will be up there - he has good endurance on longer tracks ( this ones 4 mins plus apparently) but has never won this one although he was second in 2017 was he not?. In the women's I am supporting Tracey and Nina. Rachel has a sore wrist too. MrJacques and Hairy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capricorn Posted July 4, 2019 Share Is it just me who finds Rachel more endearing nowadays? she just needs to drop the word 'like' from her lexicon, and she'll be nearly perfect I really admire her: she works hard despite the fact she's own biggest challenger. And win or lose, she's seemingly genuinely happy for herself and her opponents alike. Lots to admire. Hairy, Eddy Gordo and Odinson 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odinson Posted July 4, 2019 Share No, she is older and wiser and therefore nicer. Yip, seems age has tempered her brashness a bit. Capricorn and Hairy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
