The gravity circus has moved on in its nomadic style from Canada to New York, Windham in particular, home of Gwin,God and Guns, and now downhill bikes. the status quo has been kept with Aaron gwin coming out on top, he just keeps getting better, the rest of the top 10 is a little unusual, firstly Minnaar has ridden not so good and is out of the top 10, no stacks, just not up to pace, Danny hart had a big crash in sector 2 and is out of the top 10, Gee Atherton haveing a bad run also, coming in at 9th fastest, couple of noteworthy results, Steve Smith qualifying 2nd not far behind Gwin, Spagnolo having another brilliant run and coming in 3rd, Hill in consistent fashion coming in 5th, in short this should be a brilliant race with a lot of interesting scenarios that could happen.

1..Aaron Gwin
2..Steve Smith
3..Dominic Spagnolo

Its Rachel ATherton Todd... your fury at the Pivot has blurred your mind... so I take it should read..

"C'mon Tracey(hannah), wipe that smug smile off Rachel Atherton's face, get on the hot seat and stay there! "

Hope Connor Fearon and Danielle both have good runs... might still be up working this morning when it starts so may watch it live.

What a goober, Rachel bloody atherton it is!
Ahh the pivot is a small rub in joke with Gab, connor fearon is a very good rider, and i hope they let Danielle ride, her last one they didnt let her ride, i hope Hannah(mic) goes unreal, his chainless ride at MSA was something very special, even Warner didnt take a lot of notice, he came so close to getting the hot seat!

Ahhahaha.... Get off that Pivot... Awesome Joke. Awesome. Eye-wink Doesn't rub me. Not. At. All. Eye-wink

Your just jealous Todd Eye-wink I get to ride at least on of my dream bikes every single weekend Laughing out loud That pivot will get her in the top 10 tomorrow morning for sure! Smiling

Due to the fact that the US is so behind the times, I'm going to have to avoid the entire interwebs tomorrow, so that I can watch the replay tomorrow night!

C'mon Aussie!
