They're currently showing a short film "presented by Rapha". It's mildly ridiculous.BIKE Channel is showing it at 2.10 but will that be live?
OK sports fans! We appear to be live
and the feed is live now on RB TV
Warner's hair plugs are in danger of blowing out......Nice beret Mick!
Oh hell they are talking wheel sizes, I can feel the internet about to blow, and can somebody speak to Sik Mik about berets...
Looks like the corner that Hannah went down at and Bruni binned it at last year is going to be a crux point....
Weather looks hanging.
I'll go with the massive storm having more influence now
Weather looking a bit wild at the top 😯
Who won the ladies ?
Atherton, results on Pink bike and replay on redbull
Thanks watching live now ... Gee
Hope they don't get lost in that pea souper at the top.
🙁
Windy ...
It's going to take something very special to do something now
Blimey, that weather blew in quick (mind you it is a mountainous area after all). Fayolle for the win or a wet/windy masterclass from Hart?
🙁 Well that's f@%$£" it.
Shame, looks like the weather is going to decide the day now.
Luca interview
Q: "do you put your success down to 29 wheels"
A: "some people do but I don't. Its a bicycle after all"
Such a shame the weather has spoiled the fun making such an uneven playing field. Rain can bring out the best but wind ..... 🙁
The top section now looks super sketchy.. Results have got to be pretty much as it stands now
Yep gone midnight here and not really enthralled, Warner is talking it up but clean lines looking 15s down its in the bag now
What an absolute pisser. Balls.
think they would be much faster through with a practise run (in these conditions) 🙂
Well a hell of a wet run from minaar there, bold and loose not your typical Greg
Hope Hart doesn't go out for the win - could trash himself
oooooooooooooo very ungainly for Aaron 🙂
Never seen Gwin be so obviously "yeah, **** this" before 😆
DSQ for "cutting" the track ?
difficult one innit
no point bimbling down and coming in 60th
no point bimbling down and coming in 60th
Seems like a great plan, better than sitting the season out.
that is greasy 🙂
Hart down on a traverse !!!!
I think they're pinning it down and coming in 60th
Quite a steep narrow descending traverse though.
^^ of course
Bet Gee's a happy man
Sod that for a laugh, shame.
Points on the board for Gee though. 😮
I looks like Avoriaz when it rains.
****ing lethal.
great run from Bruni !
So we've learnt god hates 29ers?
Well that was a load of shit, only positive is that 15+ riders were in the bad weather not the top 5 or something, so shouldn't effect the overall much.
So, to summarise:
Womens was sadly a farce as usual - 22s down gets a top 10.
Screw riding that track in the rain!!
Some good riders have a pretty good head start in overall due to conditions, wonder if any can hold on and take the lead to the end?
29ers? To be continued...
What madness made Vergier run a mud spike? I'd have thought in those conditions you want the biggest surface area you can manage?
I'd hardly call the women's a farce.
What on earth else do you call it with such big time gaps?
22s back in the Mens got you 67th, top 10 covered by 5s.
Its supposed to be a World Cup which implies a certain level of competition. It's a bit mind boggling they are even managing to attract sponsors when they are that far off the pace.
