The Monster Energy Specialized, Australian dynamic duo of Sam Hill and
Troy Brosnan returned to World Cup racing this week after domination the
Australian national series over the winter. Brosnan finished in 8th
place on a track that catered to his pedalling strength, just over 5
seconds back. Hill crossed the line in 11th place, .8 seconds behind his
teammate.
Cloudy skies met racers on race day here in
Pietermariztburg, South Africa for the first round of the 2012 UCI MTB
World Cup. The track dried up from the previous night's deluge and was
rock hard and as fast as it had been all week by the time the top 30 men
dropped in. Both Monster Energy Specialized riders rode their
Specialized Demos with dropper posts to allow for brief relief during
the infamous 40 second pedal here in SA.
