mecheng89 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Dominant display from Pidcock. Pity Hatherley dropped, but his overall standings are still superb. DieselnDust and Hairy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping he goes hard for Purple and for Green this year. It will certainly animate the racing I think he will if he's planned to be there for 3 weeks. There's no Olympics or other event to disrupt the focus and according to some of his Dutch colleagues he learned a valuable lesson after the Tokyo crash - Finish something or you could finish nothing Jewbacca 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the last few races he would dominate in the first few laps and then fade thereafter, completely off the pace of the leaders . Is it a case of riding too hard at the beginning of each race? HA always does that: gets all testosterony at the start to assert his dominance, then his stamina fails hime. Every. Single. Race. Except one, where he was – somehow – smart and stayed at the trailing end of the lead pack. Also the one race he managed to win.

Also the one race he managed to win. though in Albstadt I think his desire to get ahead was more to do with having the disadvantage of the hardtail in the descents so wanted to dictate pace into the steep descents by making sure he was in the lead. There's also a clear dislike between him and Nino to Nino's advantage because once your competitor is in your head you're M5x1 justinafrika 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they didn't, so he was the only one who didn't know, and tried to roll what wasn't there. Edited May 11, 2022 by PhilipV DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretch Posted May 13, 2022 Share I thought that short course today was too short. Needed a few extra bits to mix it up. Don't get me wrong the ability to sustain that level for all those laps is nothing short of impressive, but would have liked to see the field split up a bit more and some tactics at play Headshot and Yyyy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
