Women's: Catharine Pendrel. She's due and has been riding very well lately.
Men's: who knows, but I like Kabush (yeah, I'm a biased Canadian, so what?). He ripped it up in the relay with the fastest lap time, maybe he's peaking at the right time.
a ridiculous thread started by a troll.
I'm a fan of Lance, but to name him with the best of the best in mountain biking is idiotic. He won a state-level race. Big deal. And a fire road climb race. Again, so what? If he trots out to a World Cup race and takes on Sauser et al, then we can talk.
