he might be injured still ??

and also .... they pick the team depending on the performance that year ..... unfortunately when your sick you dont get a chance to perform so the selectors beleive it's fair to choose those riders who are in form .. or have proven results during the year.

the team is pretty damm farkin solid.

Tracey is a little young for the worlds still i think ???? dont hold me to the rules ... but I think you have to be 16 or more ?? shes only 15 ?

Be good to see her do the Jr worlds .. shell clean it for sure

jarah isnt taking liams spot, ayden and jarah are the reserves, and based on their performance in the next few races, the best one will be racing depending on their results. Yes tracy is too young, its 16 and up bit unlucky, but she will mop the floor with them

thanks Dom, but i thought given he was selected in the 4x team then he'd be given a spot for DH too... it must be a tough time for the Aussies, because there are another 10 or so guys competing O/S... It sucks beeing such a good country in terms of performance :roll:

Yeah thats exactly it dude ... who do you exclude from the team to include Mick after not racing all season ??

We all know and Love Mick .. a true humble and hes probably one of the nicest guys on the planet from every report ive read .. But I bet you even hes on the same line of thinking ... the guys choosen have been proving themselves all year and punching out solid results .. I cannot fault any of the Dhers in the team .. they have all pulled solid results and are of worthy selection.

4X however .. is probably less to choose from and the spot was there.

Could be dangerous having Mick dedicate himself to 1 event at the Worlds ... watch out 4xers

Tracey is 16. You have to 17 to race the worlds. The UCI don't officially recognise any points she gets as she is too young. Mick doesn't want anyone to make room for him on the DH team due to him not racing the season. He will be at Durango this weekend. :lol:

why do the junior men get to race worlds when they are 16 but not junior women? eg amiel and liam last year

Spoke to a mate last night who chills with Mick .. and he said that hes pretty bummed about not racing the DH .. but understands the decision and has full support for the team selected.

Hes apparently been trainning like a nutcase as usually .. and is going to go hard at Durango .. and the 4X at the worlds hopefully ;)

Thanks Hellie for the updates aswell

So what about Mungus for the junior worlds reserve spot, is he still in wityh a chance? He did beat Jara at the Maxxis Cup, or does that have no bearing

go Aussies!

seeing hugh isnt a reserve he doesnt, ayden and jarah are the reserves, and jarah is now in the team (from his mouth) but his bike was wrecked by falling off the chair lift, so he is riding Sam Hills bike from last year or sumthing.
