To see Avancini so emotional at the end - to make this beautiful track with his dad, lead the race for a spell, wanting the win so bad. Then to have the crowd losing their minds for him at the finish regardless. What a proud moment for him indeed.

@VWsurfbum: So I guess an XC bike won't break in half after a 3' jump? Who would have thought?

THIS is how you tell a story. Give yourselves a pat on the back all involved. (Editors, give yourselves an extra one because you absolutely nailed it.)

A good weekends racing, but words like 'making bistory , come on a highest number of wins so far was equalled, thats not history. A pretty good opening weekend, with some really encouraging performances, some not so, but it's a long season. A woman's race significantly impacted by illness.

I don’t know about y’all, but every time I hear Lauren Smith talking I just cringe. I feel like she was taken from a home renovation or baking challenge tv show.

I feel like she actually can talk vs. some of the athletes who become commentators... I like this style a lot. Felt like she told a good story.
