I found this description of the Sea Otter DH and thought it was fitting ;

"Downhill was on Sunday, with continuing over night rain making things a bit slick in practice but drying out fairly nicely for the final runs. I never would have imagined in my whole life that a downhill track could be this painful and crap for racing on. The first half of the track was quite good, not completely stupid amounts of pedalling with some fun sections that flowed well but the last 45 seconds of the course was pure straight line pedalling.

Not to take anything away from winner Mike King or anything, cause you still need skills and it also shows how strong he is, but any track that Jr world champ Sam Hill has a good run on and loses by almost 15 sec on is not a DH track. All you could get from that race was an idea of your fitness."

Doesn't sound very "DOWNHILLish" to me...
