The legend of Danny Hart came up on yesterdays ride. Mike Solis - TopicsExpress



          

The legend of Danny Hart came up on yesterdays ride. Mike Solis and I were talking to a guy that had never seen what happened. The most amazing win in cycling history. You can talk about road, or track, or XC, but the greatest win ever is in DH. The thing is, many people have seen the winning run. Most people havent seen it in context. The full replay on xtreme is broken (extreme/mountainbike/1016784/uci-mtb-dhi-world-championships-2011-men-replay) but I found the following clip that puts the run in some context. When you see Gee Atherton, Greg Minnar, and Aaron Gwin, not just loosing a race but crashing on course in a world championship run, the conditions speak volumes. Watch Dannys run. Then watch the difference in how the best riders in the world and former world champions ride the course. There is no denying that this is the definitive performance of the sport. FYI, most other riders were walking most of the course sections. https://youtube/watch?v=LSqj8c8LaBQ
