Just came back from Lee Quarry and caught the final 2 runs... what a race! I can't believe Josh lost it, he has had an amazing year, that's racing though.

Now gotta wait for the replay to watch Sam's crash and Mulally's chainless epic

I'm calling chainless downhill becoming an official part of the calendar

MrKnifey · 7 Sep 2014 at 15:00

We used to do chainless seeding runs in the Dragon DH races, was epic fun!

Any news on the rat yet? Nobody seems amused that the coverage was cut before the men's medals.

That pic of josh's foot is ouchhh!

MrKnifey · 8 Sep 2014 at 07:02

The dudes face standing next to the tree in the Sam Hill pic is class

neil_g · 8 Sep 2014 at 07:38

Ouch, that foot looks like it might smart a bit!

Hope the surgery and recovery don't hamper any off season training..

Caught up with the top20 after a very disappointing day yesterday.
The race up at Aston yesterday was nothing short of fantastic, with a big crowd and perfect conditions, over the best track we could have run down south.

Ended up not being allowed to race (long boring story, but basically admin f*ckup), after looking forward to it for so long

neil_g · 8 Sep 2014 at 10:11

ah my hoy ree shorts have arrive while i was on holiday. hopefully theyre a better fit than the jersey

neil_g · 8 Sep 2014 at 11:12

Josh talking to Greg at the end

Josh: "I didn't want to brake for that jump, did you brake?"
Greg: "I had a puncture.."
Josh "Ohh, ****."

That footage is incredible, it seriously looks sped up in parts but the fact it isn't is amazing!
