Live broadcasts cancelled for final three Life Time Grand Prix events in 2022
Leadville Trail 10🌠0 MTB coverage reduced to social channels on ꦬAugust 13

Live streaming has abruptly ended for the inaugural 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:LifeTime Grand Prix presented by Mazda at the halfway point o🧜f the six-race off-road series. Life Time, which owns and operates the invitation-only series with a $250,000 year-end prize purse, said the decision was made jointly with broadcast partner FloSports.
168澳🥂洲5最新开奖结果:FloSports was selected as theꩵ broadcast partner for the series, which began with a live broadcast from Sea Otter Classic for the F🔯uego XC 80k, the opening round. All six events were to be streamed on the FloBikes channel for subscribers 💦worldwide, including on demand content.
“FloSports and Life Time have mutually agreed to cease broadcast production for th✃e Life Time Grand Prix and remaining events will not𒀰 be streamed on FloBikes,” Life Time said in a statement this weekend.
“Life Time and FloSports set out to deliverꦯ a high-quality broadcast for some of the most exciting gravel and mountain bike races in the world. This was a bold undertaking, and something that had never been done. We learned quickly that environmental challenges faced by the athletes on these courses were equally challenging for the production team. Ultimately, technical limitations, course conditions and remote locations proved insurmountable. As such, we are no longer able to broadcast these races at the quality level fans and athletes deserve.”
Organisers selected 30 women and 30 men from applications in December to compete across two disciplines and six events, the prize purse distributed evenly between the top 10 in separate women’s and men’s standings. Along with the allure of major prize money came the promise of international media coverage, which was a first for most of the event🍎s. Some athletes posted about their surprise at the scrapped livestream to social media.
The announcement came just one week ahead of the next stop in the series, Leadville Trail 100 MTB in Colorado. Some of the top athletes competing are three-time Leadville Trail 100 MTB champion Rose Grant, Grand Prix women’s leader Sophia Gomez Villafane, 2021 men’s champion 🌟and Grand Prix men’s leader Keega🔯n Swenson and Peter Stetina, fifth overall in the GP and defending champion of the Leadville-SBT GRVL doubleheader.
Replays of Fuego XC 80K and Unbound Gravel 200 are still available for subscribers on the FloBikes web site. The third event, Crusher 🌼in the Tushar, did not have a full-length live broadcast “due to technical limitations” and was reduced to interviews and on-th🔯e-ground videos during the race with post-race highlights.

Organisers noted that any race updates would be made through social channels for each of the final three events, with “Life Time and FloSports remain open to future coll🅠aborations”.
After Leadville Trail 100 MTB on August 13, the series will𒅌 conclude with Chequamegon MTB Festival in Wisconsin on September 17 and Big Sugar Gravel in Arkansas on October 22.&n🍎bsp;
We received notice today that Flo Sports will not be covering the remainder of the LTGP events in 2022. Media coverage sliiiiide for that next @groadio #s𒐪ticky👍foot pick.
