December 31, 200718 yr Bet Bou did it to point out Raga would do same all night.Shame to lose Raga as i think it would of made for a very interesting 2nd place challenge. I now seeing Bou ride at 21 some 10 years younger than Douige think that he can exceed in Wtc titles. Happy New Year to all Everyone thinks that Bou has the talent to go all the way and beat Doug's 7 consecutive World titles but whether or not he does only time will tell. At the moment he looks unbeatable but a reduced number of indoor rounds may go against him and outdoor a rejuevenated Raga, an injury free Beta 2 Stroke Doug and as ever Fuji may just distribute the WTC round wins a little more evenly than last year.
December 31, 200718 yr It could be intresting if doug can apply some pressure on bou! Outdoors! Six days in scotland should see him tuned into the bike.Then win the next world round!
January 1, 200818 yr Author It could be intresting if doug can apply some pressure on bou! Outdoors! Six days in scotland should see him tuned into the bike.Then win the next world round! if that is the case then why do all the wtc contenders give it a miss?
January 1, 200818 yr if that is the case then why do all the wtc contenders give it a miss? ....erm....because the factories prevent them from riding... or do you have more insider info?????
January 1, 200818 yr ....erm....because the factories prevent them from riding... or do you have more insider info????? Fear of injury. In much the same reason as Doug was prevented from riding the Scott for so many years and probably why Laia hasn't ridden for a few years. Edited January 1, 200818 yr by Cota Kid
January 1, 200818 yr Video coverage has now been added to the front page article Who has seen the Toni Bou cotton reel vid then? How awesome is that !!!!
January 1, 200818 yr I saw Bou ride it, what number was the section ? takes a long time to load on't trusty old dial-up
January 2, 200818 yr I saw Bou ride it, what number was the section ? takes a long time to load on't trusty old dial-up It is second from the bottom of the list - well labeled. Hope this helps.
January 2, 200818 yr As I said, I saw Bou ride it, and wanted to know the section number so I could watch other riders ride the section.
January 2, 200818 yr Kinell, AtomAnt, Andy ..... you guys deserve a medal for the photo/video coverage and quality editing. We were there and saw it first hand but to get to see it all over again, even closer up, is fantastic. I've always been disappointed with the TV coverage of the indoors, your vids on here are in another league. THANKS!!!!!! Richard and Daniel.

I've always been disappointed with the TV coverage of the indoors, your vids on here are in another league. Thanks for the compliment, but you should leave my name out. Kinell did the videoing and AtomAnt did the editing (it all got a bit complex with new video camera and windows problems resulting in loads of emails flying about!) All I did was create the links and publish them. The real work was done by Brian and Ian.
January 2, 200818 yr It's nice to get a compliment like that, cheers I'm just glad that it's only once a year, as filming the event is easy compared to the video editing!
January 3, 200818 yr awesome videos, thanks guys... watching bou on the cotton reels makes me smile every time i see it!! haha
