2019 World Cup XC......

[mtnbikej]

On the Men's XCO.....Nino is finally meeting his match.

As close as the Men's DH was this year.......

Women's XCO was even closer.

Today's women's race provided plenty of drama. Good race on a relatively tame course.

American male cracked the top 30!!!! Woot woot!

We invented the damn sport. Why do we suck at it?

In the meantime, 5 'Muricans in the top 16 in DH. Harrison, Klein, Gwin, Shaw and Norton.

Maybe we Ammys just like the fun side of mt. biking and can no longer be bothered with the spandex.
