The Bull Shark Posted March 16 Posted March 16 I just watched the live feed with the wife (skipped here and there where they just talked k@k). Dammit, some of those trails today were proper. Off camber and rocky. And then tomorrow they are doing Ouberg Pas. That is going to be epic. ChrisF and DieselnDust 1 1

That is going to be epic. people saying tomorrow is easier have not ridden segments of the course. There is a LOT of sand in the back half. There is a good amount of gravel but the first 30km is going to hurt. then the last 40 is going to have the mid to back fielders whipping out their compendium of curses
Pandatron Posted March 17 Posted March 17 I’ve spent time working alongside anti-human trafficking task forces and have been exposed to some of the darkest realities people can inflict on one another. It takes a lot to genuinely shock me. That said, what I observed on the livestream sits firmly outside even those parameters....

love2fly Posted March 17 Posted March 17 17 hours ago, DieselnDust said: Georg arrived on Wednesday. I’d say he’s far from heat acclimated. Happened last year also. Lukas was here in January training in the heat and had to carry Georg through the race. They lost 14min today On IG Georg said it's Lukas AFAIK DieselnDust 1
love2fly Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Why did Pritzen ride in front so long yesterday? Did he not know his partner was hurting or he did and wanted airtime/glory? W Smith 1

DieselnDust Posted March 17 Posted March 17 On another note, the ladies stage starts and goes straight up a moerse mountain. Already huge gaps. This is really close racing…. babse 1
