Massive field and 1 US entrant - woo!

Who's this Jarrod Jakubiak fellow?

Any chance they are taking 64 qualies instead of 32 since it is a seperate event?

And, why the hell isnt Mitch Ropelato on a full ride to every one of these things.

So Jill Kintner won't race any 4X this year? I know she's going to try her hand at DH, but I would have thought this event, with no DH, would have been a good racing opportunity nonetheless?

Too bad. I liked the rivalry (friendly or not - I don't really know) between her and Anneke. They seemed to be relatively evenly matched and it kept womens 4X interesting.

Seems like Joost is Gravesy's biggest challenger. Unless Dan's training has paid off...

Good to see a proper full field. Hopefully they can carry it on into Maribor & Ft William events. Too bad the lone American entry was the bubble boy.

Yeah, track does not seem to be liked by the riders. Too small! Graves talking about how they should make the courses bigger. I hear that!

Let's hope it makes for some good racing at least
