Craziest World Cup Dual Heat Ever? 5

Video Vault

The ultimate race or the ultimate in chaos? The UCI World Cup landed in Durango, Colorado in 2001. The Herbold-designed Dual course (this is prior to 4x) featured high-speed corners, a super-tech whoops section and even a box of rocks. The unique course design provided some interesting and exciting racing.

Mickael Deldycke and Scott Beaumont had the craziest heat of the night as seen in this footage from the VHS movie Alpha Project.

Those were the days!

I don't suppose anyone's seen/got any footage of the 1998 WC Dual race at Big Bear when Cully won? Been trying to hunt some down but not had any luck.

Was that the one where he won by being the only one to do a massive huck?

sick course but is this a joke? that was the lamest heat I've ever seen. If I was an official, I would have DQed them both. They ran half the friggen course. They did more running than people in a cyclocross race.
