I seen the subject on this thread and new all the bench racers would be out in full force saying how hard they have it on their trails and that the olympic trails are flat and easy, blah, blah, blah. You guys are funny....
hmmmm...perhaps you meant to post in a different thread because no one in this thread has posted anything like that.
re: the course - I would like to see more technical climbing. roots, rocks, ledges, etc. It seemed like all the rocks/ruts/roots were on the descents, but the climbs were basically paved.
re: the race - It was pretty clear to me that Absalon won because he was so much smoother than the swiss riders on the tech parts.
