On a four and half minute run, 1.2 seconds separate 2nd through 5th. That's amazing.
It is easy to dodge our responsibilities, but we cannot dodge the consequences of dodging our responsibilities.

top canadian was something like 65th… with tyler morland from PG coming in at 73rd….
not toooo impressive, but hey it's early season
my money's on Sam Hill for the overall. World Cup racing is sweet
Steve Peat all the way, or cedric. Think of the party:woot:

He's definitely coming of age - I'd put money on him.

peats santacruz no good?
let the speculation begin!
single pivot[HTML_REMOVED]vpp?
also interesting that he was running high rollers for that race (he's sponsered by kenda).
rad to see cedric on the dh podium again! maybe the new team has instilled a bit of discipline…
hes nearly there, been podium 2 wc running, and hes won the megaavalanche and the lisbon downtown, its jst so tight at the top of the Wc. One mistake and ur out
peats santacruz no good?
The winning time was around 4.5 minutes, and Peat was off by a second or so. The top 5 were all just a few seconds apart.
At their level of riding, the various high end bikes probably don't make a whole lot of difference.
