haha I love how all the riders were complaining about the conditions and how slippery/slick everything was after the rain..then you hear Sam say its ideal conditions with great traction, what a nutter!!!

That is the best top 3 in years....even if Greg's run was 'bland'......it was still good.

wow i hate to say it but i had actually forgotten about fabian. props to him on the win!

Sam was saying the conditions where ideal because they where for the race run. in the Morning it was slippery during qualifying and practice but it did not rain anymore so the track dried out for the race which was at about 2 or 3

Way to go Stevie!
Sick to hear Barel can still lay it down.

Holy Shit Fairclough was pinning it! I think a Barel victory has been on the cards for a while, and its good to have different winners. One thing I've noticed though, why doesn't Fabien Barel have the Rainbow Stripes on his jersey like Hill, Minnaar? He's a two time World Champion...

I'm really disappointed that Peaty flatted, it could end his chance of taking the overall title, He is still in second, but seeing how consistent Minaar has been, I will be surprised if he pulls it off, a real bummer

ridinfree0freeridin (Jun 22, 2009 at 3:08)

yh i no, bt still 44kph through the speed gate on a flattie Razz

major props there

Barel and Mondraker are doing a good job. Remember that Barel is racing with an wobbly nee... Wink

Sam doesnt look that fast on a Demo... LOL

Go Barel!
Go Peaty(bad luck with the flat)

Have a look at Rhys Willemse's time of 3.10.04. That kid is just 17 and blew the other juniors away. They say he is the next Sam Hill coming out of Australia and I reckon they could be right.
