Olympic MTB times and coverage

Anyone not living under a rock will know that thing in London is starting soon. However did you know the men and women's MTB events won't happen till the last 2 days. So we have to face countless days of running, jumping and gay wrestling* before we get to the fun stuff.

Woman
Sat 11th Aug 21.30 (AEST)

Men
Sun 12th Aug 22.30 (AEST)

I'm going to take a punt and say these will not be televised by any of the local networks. The BBC however are streaming every single event live on the iPlayer - if you know how to get it.

Enjoy!

* I've heard Gazza is looking forward to this

New mountain biking movie in Sydney

Help! I spotted an ad for a new mountain bike movie release in the Herald this week and then someone else at work pinched the paper! Can't find anything on the net and don't know the name of the movie. Anyone got any info please?

XCM Rankings

So - with 4 races down (Wombat, Cap Pun, Convict and Husky) and 2 to go (Woolombi and Fling) the rankings are really starting to take shape and make interesting reading.

http://www.cyclenation.com.au/results/ranklist.a...

Remember - its your best 3 results that count, and also that there are 25% more points on offer at the Fling. Its going to get VERY tight.

BTW - how many nobmobbers are listed there in the top 20 on the first page? Great work - Dicko, PS, Brian, Tate and 'Anthem X1 Girl'.

Hiya,

Riders will leave the start gate 30-60 seconds apart starting with the fastest seeded riders on the first llap, actual times on lap 1 will dictate start times for laps 2 & 3

Rego from 9, racing starting at 1030, there will be a BBQ operating, my backyard BMX/pump track will be open and other areas of the XC loops at geurie will be open for you to keep warm on.
