I started watching this last night and saw Varnish and Pendleton win the team spring in world record time. Awesome.

I was thrilled thinking this was the 'World Championships'. Quite why these would be held in Feb I have no idea. I am a muppet.

So what is this event? Is it like a world cup DH/XC event, so there's a series of them throughout the year and an overall winner at the end?

Yup, there's a series, think the first was in Astana, no idea about the others though.

Thanks Sambob.

How come they win 'gold medals' as opposed to just winning?
