I'd imagine there'll be a course preview and stuff on social media, but I think any coverage of the actual race is unlikely.

Maybe every bike comes with a drill bit. In all seriousness it'd be interesting to see sales figures at the end of the year to see which version is most popular.

But do we even see holes in the frame of Camile's bike? That's a prerequisite for non headset routing (unless it's all external??).

Probably really cuts down the number of pesky fans asking if they can sit on the bike for a photo.

It was interesting listening to Dean's take on things, he was very positive and inferred other riders were also feeling the same. The elephant in the room that he failed to address is the fact that fans will have to pay to watch and what that might do to viewer figures and the popularity of the sport. Watching the interview...

My comment was based on Bruni's observations in the video above. He didn't seem too keen on the new tape. Time will tell if they keep it or look at other options. It'll be interesting to hear what the general consensus from the riders is concerning the changes.

So they've improved the poles and lessened the risk of going over the bars, but you can now get a pedal caught in that overly strong mesh tape and go over the bars instead, or maybe garrote yourself if you leave the track at the wrong spot.

I think it's highly likely that both Williams and Goldstone will break the newbie mould and take wins in elite this season, neither are phased by the step up into elites from what I've seen.

Fellow 1st year Elite Jordan Williams was on a heater 1.7 seconds up at the 3rd split but must have crashed as his 1.48 min back at the 4th split. Jordan also won qualifications by over 5 seconds.

Wild how OF might damage the image of the UCI, but road teams sponsored by repressive regimes like Bahrain, Israel and the UAE, chemical company Ineos, and a slew of gambling sponsorship is fine, as is handing out special awards to the dictator of Turkmenistan.

I do hate when I drop a book and the last few pages of supplemental information pops out the binding. Wishing Jackson well on his recovery.

Talking to the pros at the race the biggest difference wasn't hown town advantage, its the fact that the aussies have been riding all summer long and are in good shape. Jesse was snowed in 2(?) weeks before he left, he barerly got decent bike time. All the euro bike parks are closed still, BC had super late snow, American east coast got smashed with intense weather. Where would a European have consistent training to be race ready for 11min hectic DH stage?
