Liked the track and it's challenges or hated it?
The ruts complicated it but as we all saw it wasn't unrideable.

Hated riding it, but liked that it caused many of their competitors to make mistakes.

While this is true, many appreciated having a track where their skills set them apart from those that weren’t willing to “send it”.

I've heard pro golfer bitching about the greens at the US open that everybody had to play but this?

Well we went from the shirty A2 track to the near perfect Glendale to a track that offered the best racing but was the gnarliest of the year. I'm sure they were happy it was over but they all bitched about the simplicity of A2. They got what they wanted and that was a challenge.

Add Plessy to the loved it list of guys. Aaron just seems to excel on difficult sketchy tracks. Bummer that he was sick, still killed it though.

I always thought in SX the tracks were supposed to challenge the riders a little bit as well as the riders challenging each other. I'm getting a little bored with these cookie cutter generic tracks where everybody is doing the same obstacles the same way and there's no separation of skill levels. Everything depends on getting a good start and if you start mid pack, forget it. Too many jumps and not enough tough rhythm sections that would separated the good riders from the average ones.
