We know, more highlights, but can we really complain about more riding coverage? We posted the men and women’s highlights from Les Gets, but here’s the overview from Red Bull. Maribor seems so far away, but at least we have the EWS this weekend to give us our racing fix.
There were thrills and spills and riders went all out in the tough conditions. The fans brought it too, upping the atmosphere and cheering riders on trackside. Get settled in and catch up with almost 16 minutes of highlights from Les Gets.
The second round of the UCI mountain bike downhill world cup in Les Gets, France, delivered the goods. On one hand the bad weather could not spoil the joy of countless fans, celebrating their grand return to the side of the track, on the other hand the world’s finest racers had a hard battle to fight down a rain-soaked mountain. In the end it was Tahnee Seagrave and Thibaut Daprela who took home the wins.
