Close race for the overall title after MSA. Brook McDonald could have made it close if he hadn't of went down. I was hoping for Danny Hart to take his first. Looks like the youngsters are taking over. Hill proves you can still win on flats.

How many Schwalbe riders had a "flat" today? Thought they had the new $200 inner tube system.

Brilliant race. So stoked to see Sam back on top (on a proper track). Enough with the groomer bike park tracks already.

Was Bryceland just taking a cruiser run in the finals? Looked that way

I was thinking the same thing until I saw the time at the first split. Thought for sure he had a mechanical and was just goofing around.

Oh shit, I missed this round - as in…completely off radar. Had a family trip down south with some nice riding thrown in for good measure.

yeah, pretty disappointing track; race times sub 2:30. going to be splitting hairs for the podium. may be an opportunity for hill to demonstrate his ability to find faster lines where there are no faster lines.

Because it's so short, you're going to have crazy things like this happening:

and people risking everything for tenths of seconds. Tight times make exciting racing and better camera coverage with short courses. Beats the hell out of the Australia course.

you do have a point there. that's a pretty hairball line; would also love to see danny take a win with a ragged run like that.

None posted yet, me thinks. Been searching since late afternoon (T.O. time).
