And Brage was what? a second back? Such fine margins in DH & it's remarkable when you consider the variables in the course. These lads are truly exceptional riders.

chuffed for lewis buchannan and bernard kerr (for different reasons). Glad to see everyone made it out fairly unscathed.

Some scary hits on that, glad nobody was badly hurt. They’ve all got balls of steel.
as a Brit I would love to agree but travel difficulties must have been a factor
For our relatively small population the UK are a massively dominant force in DH racing and has been for at least the previous couple of decades.
It's a one off UK invitational event and many of the top international UCI World Cup DH riders won't attend (for many reasons).
At this year's event 17 of the (28?) riders invited were from the UK. But that's not unusual as every year it's been held the entry has been made up from more UK riders than non-UK riders

He’s the real deal cyclist. Nothing he can’t do. Will he be putting on a little muscle and move onto Enduro then DH? I’m just kidding, but I can’t help thinking he’d be a winner at Enduro and a contender DH ?

Hot hot hot here in Maribor. No XC so Sunday race, can’t walk track till tomorrow PM but the stuff we’ve been riding is steep and loose. Track should be dam fast!
Blimey, Bernard was sounding super confident on his track walk ?
Certainly a few tricky bits !

Putain!
So I think Bernard and Wynn are both out with casts. Bernard only recorded a time for the first split. I think Finn is out too.

Bernards timed run starting at 22:40. Some interesting bits before there like rock garden lines .. That must be disappointing :-( .

Just watched it, the atmosphere seems amazing. Although it’s a race they have a great time together.

What is it with the Lidl trainers ? ? We had loads for sale in our local store and laughed at how bad they are. They’re selling for quadruple the price online now
Little update from Bernard early on in this one :

Miriam back on the top of the podium! And Tahnee still right in there for the overall by the end of the season - impressive after her fall in practice ?
Now, what can the lads do — would love to see Rico do well, but he’s not enjoying the changing light. Maybe G’pa’s got something for us — top 10? I think Greg’s been keeping something back; would be stoked for him and Peaty if ended up on top ? Realistically, It’ll be Laurie or Loris…
