Capricorn Posted May 22, 2011 Share there. he just said it again.. you must have amazingly efficiently chair lifts? is this a stage event? Edited May 22, 2011 by Jarek Wysocki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 22, 2011 Share there. he just said it again.. you must have amazingly efficiently chair lifts? is this a stage event? I think it's more of a mini-series. Although, it does have Broadway appeal (edit - VERY vague, I know. But I doubt that 20km of ST nirvana could fit onto the Artscape theatre stage. More of a Band of Brothers style epic mini-series...) TWENTY. FRIKKIN. KILOMETRES. I'm having a very VERY naughty dream tonight.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 22, 2011 Share Lol... I do have the propensity to go on the roff side every now and again. My darker side coming out. Â But seriously... 20km? That's crazy talk right there. You sure you're not running 12" tires and your speedo is registering 36" tires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentgreen Posted May 22, 2011 Share These terrace ruins were discovered in 2008, while building the trail...the trail runs through them (but were not used for the race) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentgreen Posted May 22, 2011 Share One of the fast parts...on the right, look for the trail running at a nice little angle on an old inca road...we call it the autobahn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentgreen Posted May 22, 2011 Share there. he just said it again.. you must have amazingly efficiently chair lifts? is this a stage event?  Nope, they ran it similarly to a megavalanche, after qualification there were two race runs, with points for each and the best points score took it, this year's winner was the Chilean national champ, seriously, I don't know why there are not more South American riders on the World cup tour, these cats are FAST!
