Danny Hart got his mega whip on this afternoon in timed runs. The kid is a showman, and fast as hell. He has a big future ahead of him!

....as demonstrated by Mitch Ropelato. Ropelato was absolutely pinned coming over this drop. A few riders pulled up and launched, but Ropelato just flat out sent this.

Gwin was third at the first split and simply could not make up the time on a track this short. Third was where he stayed.

La Bresse DH Track

The French National racing federation makes wearing back plates mandatory. Marc Beaumont expresses his disdain for another country's racing federation dictating what he has to wear during a World Cup in no uncertain terms. "If I was racing a French National race, sure; but this is a World Cup. We shouldn't be held to their racing standards, only the UCI's.

Unpacking the Atherton's bikes from a bit of "vactation time" in Whistler means rebuilding them from scratch. Rachel Atherton took a few extra minutes to dial in her cockpit this morning before taking to the track.

La Bresse World Cup Downhill Tra

Steve Smith was definitely "on" this morning. Usually Steve's a bit mellow on the track during training--pushing only as hard as he needs to in order to get a feel for the track, but this morning the Devinci rider was pretty full tilt.

No tricks, but loads of style. Last practice run means it's time to get serious, even for CG.

Taking a slip 'n slide run trackside. There was enough beer consumed trackside that sliding down the grass in a rain barrel seemed fairly normal, all things considered.

CG

Luke Strobel's run was red flagged, forcing the American to pull up. CG and Josh Bryceland were similarly affected. All three were offered re-runs, which Rat-Boy and Strobel took; however CG declined,as he felt his run was as good as it was going to get. 19th on the day; +7 and change.
