It was. Lots of great memories of the place 🙂 Glad to hear you enjoyed it!

Same for Stranraer 😂 youtu.be/9uF15nqfJY4?...

Lived near the centre for 4 years. Loved it 👍

I don’t think those guys accept that either 😂 Interested to see how Amaury gets on next season. He looked unstoppable at VDS and Les Gets. And I think Loic has been working on his wet riding and jumping so he could have more of an edge next year too. The kids are rapid though 😮‍💨

It’s such a competitive field right now with so many riders capable of winning. Could be really close next season if they all stay healthy. Either way it’ll be great viewing 😁

Troy and Loic are the ultimate examples of that machine-like consistency. On the other hand he could be more of a Pierron type where when he’s on form he’s obliterating the rest of the field but always riding on the edge. Amaury is a freak considering how often he wins riding like that though.

Hard to say. It might be about maturing and becoming more consistent, knowing when to push and when to back off, but that could play against his strengths. He did seem to be riding a bit smarter last season and 4th in the overall is a huge achievement for such a young rider 1/2

Not really! It’s just a better bike all around. Nothing really works well in the snow except fat bikes, but it doesn’t snow often enough here to warrant buying one for me. I tend to run lower tyre pressures and slightly softer suspension setup in the winter but that’s it really.

Barios at no. 10 though 🇪🇸

Looking forward to that 😀

You definitely do! It's a fantastic place to ride. Lots of great routes around Ladybower and High Peak especially but lots of other options with something for everyone.
