Rooted MTB Goes World Cuppin' | Part 1, Loudenvielle 6

A tumultuous season of downhill has been marked by both incredible racing and weird changes that have left some riders swimming upstream a bit more than years prior. We got the last-minute opportunity to send Bodie Heflin off to Europe to have a crack at his first Elite World Cups and the challenges were not the ones we most expected. Enjoy part one from Loudenvielle. Les Gets coming soon.

Sad state of affairs, the UCI should refund him or at least sponsor him another race, after all he complied to their published timeline.

Such a crappy situation. I'm fine changing the schedule if you absolutely have to, but it's pretty merciless treatment to punish someone for showing up on time. No exceptions for the little guy? No grace? The UCI sucks.

We need the "curse of the privateer" printed up. That's awesome. And who gets credit as the author?

Awesome video, but so frustrating. It's pathetic what the UCI and its partners are doing to DH and right before our very eyes. Privateers are the life blood to the European Cup and soon they are just going to have Loic racing himself 5 times a year on his home trails in France.
