Anybody speak Czech? There's a pic on that site I'd like to order, but I don't have a clue what anything says.
Yea that was a bunch of crap if you ask me. Doesent the UCI normally call people for that?I watched the 4x last night.....Guido looked like he was riding a demo deby....
Originally we (the press) all heard that guido was DQ'd. About 10 mins later they finally started up the prodium and Guido was there. The podium was delayed while they deliberated what to do I guess.Yea that was a bunch of crap if you ask me. Doesent the UCI normally call people for that?
From what i've seen no......I'm trying to remember who was doing that in duel a few years ago on every run. I wanna say it was at Maribor.....maybe....he'd also take people out in the same turn evey run.Yea that was a bunch of crap if you ask me. Doesent the UCI normally call people for that?

I agree. Im not raging on him at all, actually I have a ton of respect for the guy and for what he has accomplished but his attitude does seem a bit wierd. I took a really close look at the footage of his wreck and although it looks as if there were some contact I do not think that it was that bad at all. Maybe it was the camera angle but when Guido came into Will Longden and Atherton in the rounds leading up to that the contact looked much much worse and somehow nothing was called. But someone made it sound like Lopes did not race the consolation because of an injury, or maybe it was a mechanical but seriously that crash looked pretty minimal. I understand he was probably angry at the situation but rubbing is racing and in an event like 4X stuff happens.And Brian Lopes has a weird attitude to racing now that he is ageing a bit, I'm not raging on him, so don't go jumping on the defenceive. He just seems to get all apathetic and bitchy when things don't go 100% he way, all the time.
Guess Lopes didn't take into account the announcer at the Jeep race sayingAccording to lopes he didn't want to risk getting taken out as he has a jeep race this week and jeep = big pay day.
And when he gets a 5 figure paycheck, i'm sure that'll hurt much less.Guess Lopes didn't take into account the announcer at the Jeep race saying
"and now in the gate...the little guy who quit at Worlds......"
Ah and there I was thinking it was just the standard way aussie guys relate socially with each other.........That guy hugging him is Nathan Rennie's brother.
There's heaps up on VorbFraser Im looking for pics of Lahar rider Cameron Cole wondering if you have any.
