kosmonooit Posted March 20, 2022 Share Notably fewer World Cup XCO racers this year. Maybe its just too much to fit in, although it seems a bucket list thing. Chris B notwithstanding, remember he won the last round at Snowshoe. Fök that oke is on fire. Also Anika L makes great addition to the commentary teams in my opinion. Eurosport / GCN should sign her.

They were gone in the opposite direction before I could even see what bike it was, or its colour ... 🙈 Probably safe to assume it is your partner. BEST wishes for the longer stages starting today DNC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it’s slightly different for the women. The points system isn’t a straightforward process. DieselnDust and duringd 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norravok. 7 minute deficit and 7 stages. No one will burn all their matches in one stage to make that up. They know what they’re doing, no doubt they’ll be racing to close that gap over the course of the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been reclassified as an XCM event not XCO hence the marathon champions can now wear their world champions jerseys. Same for the womens race as far as I lnow DNC and 'Dale 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's after they clawed back around a minute after the puncture (and stopped for a new wheel). Hoping Beers/Blevins can power to an overall win though. 👍 ChrisF and Danger Dassie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All makes for good racing 🙌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
