Happy to see a slow start to the season instead of coming out guns blazing in first few rounds and come world champs time, he is pup tyres. Either way im still convinced he'll be up there at some part of the season. Keen to see how his recent road racing experience add to his armour.

His pre season races must’ve overlapped with some seriously stressful blocks. Good race today! 🙌 DieselnDust and babse 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babse Posted April 14 Share Shew that was epic from start to end. Ridiculous how many okes could have still won that going into the last lap. Alan rode excellent to finish 8th. Entire spez team in top4. Impressive. Whats the deal with their not so impressive colour scheme? 🤨 DieselnDust, nathrix, Jorrie and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselnDust Posted April 14 Share Alan started 4th row in 26th and was as low as 36th on lap one. Go t caught up behind some slippage on a steep climb and was down to 46sec behind by the end of the lap. Clawed back to 8th. 1) Chris Blevins (Specialized Factory Racing) 2) Victor Koretzky (Specialized Factory Racing) 3) Filipo Colombo (Scott SRAM) 4) Joshua Dubois (Rockrider Ford) 5) Martin Vidaurre Kossman (Specialized Factory Racing) babse, Rowl, Jorrie and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good race today! 🙌 Yes he had quite a large block of training over the summer. I figured he was going to emerge strongest on the team it didn't play out like that in the XCC. Todays result should boost his confidence. We have Luke Moir coming up to support Alan in the elites in 2026 and there's more SA talent in the pipeline so hopefully we qualify for two spots in LA in 2028. Tyler Jacobs also did quite well in U23 considering she is going to struggle to get to all the races unless a sponsor comes on board after the Computer Mania team folded. And lets not forget to celebrate the SA coaches behind these kids, the guys and gals at Science2Sport, DaisyWay Coaching, Barry Austin, Mike Posthumus (Specialized Factory Racing) and John Wakefield (looking after Matt Beers) nathrix, Rowl, MarcoDeS and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s see how ot goes tomorrow, Bart will then also be there commentating. Definitely getting much much better, camera work/production need a bit more polishing. But overall a well produced package including the social feeds. A highlight for me is the live u23 on YouTube and then catching the elites on Statlive. R100 sub per month is nothing nathrix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
