Kyle Strait got 24th and only 11 seconds back. WOW, I was not expecting him to be the fastest American.
I ended up on the bikemag.com feed. I couldn't get freecaster to work direct for some reason.Thanks... stayed up till 1:30am to watch, spent 20 mins trying to get ANY sort of feed and then went to bed to cry myself to sleep.
(not bitching - afterall... free coverage is free, just sad)
i second this.I saw steve smith's run....did not crash it seems and I heard more than one person tell me (and on forums) that hes podium if he stays upright......anyone?
i have to comment on this again.
looks like his hand is in his wheel INTO the rotor!!!!!!
he got worked!
have to say good thread fraser
I do know that on my mac here at home, the recap videos that are up now, if I click play as on the vid as soon as it loads, it does not work.....if I wait till page is completely loaded, the vid will begin, so, maybe try that?I still can't see the vid's...any other place to find them? Pinnedmtb and freecaster just melt when the action starts...I can't wait to see.
Do the Flash versions on MTBCUTI still can't see the vid's...any other place to find them? Pinnedmtb and freecaster just melt when the action starts...I can't wait to see.

I couldnt get anything to play at mtbcut tonight , yesterday was fine.
So did you fire that other dude for being a slacker today?My eyes are hanging out of my skull today. Got to bed at 3.15 and called work to say i'll be in at 10. So worth it though.
!
Good look. Could it be the palm of his glove...which would be another color? I hope not...could that hand in rotor deal be some course tape? because he has a grey 661 glove on, the hand that is on ground, but the other one that looks like going through rotor is more white????
Hit a tree.I saw steve smith's run....did not crash it seems and I heard more than one person tell me (and on forums) that hes podium if he stays upright......anyone?
They are working on this at the office now. Combination player issue and simply too much traffic to stream. We have more bandwidth and servers on order for Andorra.I do know that on my mac here at home, the recap videos that are up now, if I click play as on the vid as soon as it loads, it does not work.....if I wait till page is completely loaded, the vid will begin, so, maybe try that?
I'll know that when I get home tonight. I believe 4x was 30 000k total (not all at once). I assume DH will be more?Any idea how many people were tuned in watching this?
we were looking at that earlier today and thinkin the same thing...that likes intensei have to comment on this again.

my inventory got delayed from overseas... dammit.. i told him & the couple of other guys running my goggles to do what they can... but don't stress on running the goggs if it comes down to it. i know at the Worlds Test race he used a set of Oakleys w/ my strap on it... but wasn't able to at Maribor. it's no biggie until i get my stuff in hand. i'll make sure he's dialed for the next big race (well, the race after this coming weekend... since everythings due to be in port by the 13th... then depends on customs).JDD....
I noticed Kovarik in finish area with goggles with big huge SMITH "S" on strap, did the Dean goggles get stuck in customs?
it's a new UCI dumb decision. everyone (riders, teams, etc) are against it & i guess are gonna try & petition to have it returned to a 5 man podium... but we'll see what happens.3 man podium??!! What happened to having 5 up there?
If thats true way to go to miff off the people who support you most, don't they ask these guys first, how are they going to get to the next level of professionalisim if they don't listen or work with the people who provide the entertainmentit's a new UCI dumb decision. everyone (riders, teams, etc) are against it & i guess are gonna try & petition to have it returned to a 5 man podium... but we'll see what happens.
Stink, hopefully they listen to the riders then....it's a new UCI dumb decision. everyone (riders, teams, etc) are against it & i guess are gonna try & petition to have it returned to a 5 man podium... but we'll see what happens.
Thx a lot but I'm afraid I have to claim that sentence. Warner would never have said that - he's way too polite!Ohh yeah, almost forgot, one of the best comments of the day:
"Here comes Americas fastest woman!" -Rob Warner commenting on Duncan Riffle...
that is a very very bad place to fall...
