Duane_Bosch Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Enjoy and ride safe Indeed.The first rule of these trips is to finish the trip.Don't get carried away. Day 3 & 4 are your danger days.Ride within your limits.Take it all in.Don't take a rest day. Chow some painkillers and man up. Maybe do a ridge line day but get out there.Get your eye in in Les Gets but then get away from there ASAP. The best trails are elsewhere. Go back to Les Gets is it's raining.Go to MorginsDo the Col de Cou ridgeline
Duane_Bosch Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 @Myles and @Nigel. A while ago the 2 of you ridiculed me for having the temerity to suggest that the World Cups should be held where the riding infrastructure and the fans are. I.e. Bikeparks. Here we are in 2019 and all of the World Cups are being held in Bikeparks...... This weekend's world cup is being held at the Grand Daddy of European Bikeparks. On the very same mountain in fact. I await my apology.

Odinson Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Predictions for this weekend? Frankly, it's probably going to be another French podium, but I think Brosnan could maybe, just maybe, sneak in a win. Hot tip for the FL: Gwin is feeling fresh and ready to race!

Duane_Bosch Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 I still think that more places should be able to showcase their stuff, but I did act like an ass in how I argued my viewpoint. For that, I apologise. Hehe. Didn't really get offended.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Hehe. Didn't really get offended. Yeah I know, but still.

Hot tip for the FL: Gwin is feeling fresh and ready to race! Hey, your'e almost in the top 10. If you stick Aaron "Dirt Nap" Gwin in your team you're sure to get there.
Odinson Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Hey, your'e almost in the top 10. If you stick Aaron "Dirt Nap" Gwin in your team you're sure to get there. Thanks! This is a pretty big deal for me and I appreciate everyone's validation. Just have to beat those 311 cheaters/bots.
Capricorn Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 one of the better RB highlights packages in a while. Not convinced yet about Eliot Jackson as a commentator. Nice guy, but strikes as someone on PB described Claudio: a color commentator.
Headshot Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XR_gkBuERlw You gotta love the Alps in summer.... This track is interesting - old school but tricky and very fast. Should be better than watching the Crankworx version because RB will have more cameras. Lots of nerve required to hit those flat grassy corners as fast as possible. Cant wait.
