Danny Hart

And I tell you one thing that I was surprised at though is that it seems like...

I saw Danny Hart put up a course preview for 1199 with the changes we have for World Cup, and it does seem like that the track is kind of somewhat open leading very, very close to the event, so.

Which in some ways might make sense with those changes that you wanna get some World Cup people on there.

It's just, you know, last minute tweaks to be made and they're doing quite a bit of work.

Yeah.

Danny Hart's just put a preview video up.

Oh, has he?

Yeah, he's been riding some of the new sections.

And then since then, I guess after that, and as the guys were working, anytime somebody was coming, we would send them out with the trail crew for a walk.

So we had Danny Hart following his, I can't remember if it was his world champs winner or his world cup overall.

He came out right after in the fall.

He used

that too maybe coming from motocross or whatever that it's like oh the the overall was this like consistency like and you could have this one off and i think it's interesting too i was looking back through all of the results and your wins and things And, like, you've raced so many different people.

Looking at the people who you beat, like, Minard, like, your wins, like, Minard second, Loic Bruni second, Loris Vergier, Steve Smith, Steve Peat, G. Atherton, like, McKenna, Emery Pierron, Danny Hart, like, all of these people who we think of.

as mainstays in the eras of downhill? Did you feel like you had to approach racing different in different eras or racing against different people? Or did people come up and you kind of saw them

riding different? Not really, to be honest.

You know, something that has come up loads on the podcast is people...

I think it was Danny Hart talked about how hard it is for him to be a downhill racer because he lives on the east coast of the UK, and there is literally no trails-

I know

... nothing, no downhill trails until you get to, like, the, to Wales, basically.
