So I see that SA got 11th place in the team cross country relay!! The junior womens xc got under way at 8pm SA time...does anyone know where to find live results/feed from the various events?

I did not do the calculation but estimate SA would have been top 5 if the Women rider´s time is excluded.

 

Bright future for SA mtb´íng

 

 

Note: I am not bashing Yolande, she is highly rated imo

I am not sure what happened with Yolande's lap but she did seem to be the slowest rider. Perhaps a mechanical/crash. But other than that the future of South African cycling is looking very very bright!!! And beating the Aussies is a bonus too!!

Lets hope after last weeks flat that Burry has seen the end of his bad luck for the weekend and gets to wear the RAinbow jersey. Goodluck to all our riders.

its got nothing to do with bad luck... put some decent tires on - couple of grams extra, but at least finish the race. it is not the first time this has happened. he is good enough to ride with that "weight".
