Absalon bests Shurter again.

I just watched Julien Absalon, the Michael Jordan of cross country mountain bike racing drop his greatest rival, Nino Shurter, who just couldn’t handle Absalon in Albstadt, Germany. In Nino’s defense Julien had his best ride in the last two years taking his 29th UCI World Cup win. Gotta wonder if it had anything to do with the new Shimano XTR Di2 electronic derailleur system he just got this week. “One of the best performance’s by Julien Absalon ever” said Bart Brentjens, winner of the first Olympic gold ever awarded in XC mountain biking.
