Jehosefat Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Women's event is way more entertaining at the moment Has been for the last few years. Been far too much domination in the men's (between Nino and MvdP)
DieselnDust Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Has been for the last few years. Been far too much domination in the men's (between Nino and MvdP)This year MvDP has won 3Nino 2Flueckiger 1. Last year Nino shared the wins withFluckiger and Kerschbaumer and Gaze He's not won a short track as far as I can remember.it's only the 2017 season that is an outlier where he dominated everything. The mens racing has been pretty exciting too but the ladies have a greater variety of characters in the mix for a win.
Long Wheel Base Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Luckily the UCI were not checking socks, white long socks don't belong at mtb races tsk tsk tsk Mr VdP and Avancini MvP socks.jpg Nino Ninosocks.jpgSock color debate aside, Those are awesome pics. Credit goes to?

b-rad Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Helen Grobert retired due to health reasons, Saying her health and kind came first.That is indeed the reasoning given to the public. That may be the case but I've also heard slightly different
PhilipV Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 That is indeed the reasoning given to the public. That may be the case but I've also heard slightly differentHeard from a knowledgeable source or from someone who knows your mate at a Braai? Because of the sensitivity around mental health issues I really want it not to be a case of someone using it as an excuse for nefarious purposes. Especially with cycling's history in this matter.

The mens racing has been pretty exciting too but the ladies have a greater variety of characters in the mix for a win. talking to myself here... Upon further reflection, Nino has taken a bit of a dip in form these last two years since XCC was introduced. Clearly the short track takes more of an edge out of he more than the younger guys like MvDP..It may also explain why we're better able to see the riders coming to form and then sliding out of it
LONE TWO Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Sure would be interesting if MVP does the epic one of the years.
kosmonooit Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 The mens has got more competitive and more exciting, two years ago it was completely dominated by Nino now its much more open with 3/4 upfront giving it horns.
