Wet and wild hardly begins to describe the extremity of today's highland practice session... Plastic-wrapped riders trickled down the legendary gauntlet in dribs and drabs, leaning into gusting wind and blitzing downpours while desperate media clung to the shelter-free, Scottish tundra in attempt to continue to capture the action. The rains arrived as forecast almost exclusively for the Fort William area, supplied by pretty ferocious winds that now threaten to put tomorrow's practice and qualifying entirely on ice. Those in attendance of the BDS last month need no reminder of the painful consequences of high winds, but rather than repeat the format of a half lap with pushing up or shuttling it appears a fairly unanimous vote from team managers and others at the helm to rather postpone all action to Sunday, as the course for qualification must remain the same for finals. The results of a dramatic sounding, early-morning, 'crisis meeting' will determine the schedule, so here's hoping for a calmer turn to keep things as they should be and let this gnarly version of a classic play out to the fullest...
Aaaaaahhahahahahhahahahahha
That is, hands down, the funniest Pinkbike picture caption I've ever seen.
It looks like it. Probably because he's boozing it up in most of the This is Peaty films as opposed to drinking their fizzy, tooth-dissolving, super-concentrated-sugar syrup, obesity juice.
Booze is the healthier option.
Maybe Jager could sponsor him?
Oh wait that's Vital MTB...
Either way, I like Gwin (I own one of his old Yeti frames after all) but he's never done well in the slop.
well then
Group A is only the top80, right?
Cool shots, so atmospheric!
