First UCI Mountain Bike Downhill World Cup race of the season, first Mountain Bike Downhill World Cup race of the decade. And what a race it has been! Maribor, Slovenia treated the riders with a mixture of mud, slippery roots & sharp rocks.
At the end of the day, victory in both women's and men's race went to France with Marine Cabirou & Loris Vergier taking the top spots on the podium. Now, just one more day until we get to see them race again!
Can anyone figure out why the f*ck Red Bull are STILL putting "Watch __________'s winning run from Maribor" on their home screen as soon as you go on bike. It's so f*cking annoying for people not in Europe who watch the replay broadcast
I went for a muddy root and rock strewn ride this evening. I was afraid the whole time of my front tire washing out. Much respect to the racers. It's a freaky feeling sliding around like that and they attack it with abandon.
