Absolutely unbelievable for GB…1,2,3 for the Women and 1,2 for the Men….not bad for a country with no mountains!….
Why is it such a big sport in this country?….i think there is some merit to what someone said earlier in the week that the rest of continental Europe ski during the winter whereas we continue riding through all 12 months of the year….obviously the top Euro guys find the winter warm weather places to keep riding but at a grass roots level i should imagine kids from Austria, Switzerland, Germany, France, Italy etc near the Alps have no choice but to switch to skis during the winter.
