   Anyone up for some top three (well, top 2 for the girls) predictions for the pros - your choice:

   Blokes
   - Andreas Hestler
   - Ben Cruz
   - Fabien Barel
   - Jérôme Clementz
   - Marc Beaumont
   - Mark Weir
   - Nico Vouilloz
   - Rowan Sorrell

   Girls
   - Tracy Moseley
   - Anka Martin

   I'll go with local knowledge and experience over youth and say:
   1. Jérôme Clementz
   2. Nicolas Vouilloz
   3. Fabien Barel

   and I'll go for Tracey to take the womens honours. Anyone else fancy a punt?

   Seen as the route goes past Nico an Fabien's house's and Jérôme trains for 20hrs a week up there through the winter,they should be top 3.
   rode there a few times my self an it's awsome riding but not for everyone, makes the mega avalanche look tame.

   I would say fabien won't finish before nicolas, due to his injuries. So first nicolas, second fabien and third jerome, but you'll never know

   Good thing is, I'll be the very first one to know it, and that does kick asses...

   3 frenchies got to be top 3. Hestler is an xc mincer

   My longshot is Mr Sorrell - he is pretty handy on a bike

   I am going Weir. Fit, capable and determined. He has been waiting for this race all his life.

    Should have put some money on that top three! Costly last day for Nico though I got the impression he'll be back...

    I think Ingrid should get a big shout out for coming 3rd woman and where was Rolf??? I thought he was coming back to ride it this year to have another stab at it?

    I loved all the vids. Good job.
