Bring on stage 17! What do people think the odds are of Cav actually finishing this stage?

Cav towed by team car photo shocker! :-)

It looks like Cav’s gettin a tow downhill in that shot

would like to know when that recon clip was filmed – mid/late april? – still an enormous amount of snow up top. very different to riding up to smiggins & charlottes’ pass which is only closed during peak season. aussie alps so lame – curse the age of this continent and the millions of years of erosion & weathering.

Is it just me or do EE’s Orbea helmets make them all look like Lieutenant Worf from Star Trek dressed in orange?

  I don’t know about Lieutenant Worf, but the helmets do look strange!

Errrr How is the first climb a GPM2?! (I assume that’s a Cat 1 equivalent?)
