Paul Sherwin did the commentary. Also, Organizers sold 75,000 tickets to fans for that event, about $12 a ticket if I remember correctly. Leigh Donovan won the womens race that day, some highlights at the beginning of her (long) highlight reel here... ... more »

The cat is a dead giveaway on that 'hangin up the boots' Whoever is making these, big props to them, fun stuff. We need some 4X cartoons! Maybe one of Boom Boom smashing the keyboard ;-)

Reply to Lopes Back On World Cups? 5/14/2011 8:15 AM

Lopes won the national series DH, in it's hey day, 2 times I think...no easy task. He never won a world cup DH, but his world cup win record in general is unmatched I am pretty sure. Pretty rad an almost 40 yr old dude is still able to make a living ... more »

You said it, not me...and I sure as shit have not gone around with marketing bullsh1t like that. I think we make awesome bikes, never put a stupid label on any bike we make like you said. That being said, I thought the news on this derailler was out ... more »

I have ridden this, it is the greatest thing to come from the bike industry in a while. Seriously rad.

Reply to History Lesson: Jared Graves '03 3/17/2011 9:19 AM

Graves was a bad a$$ downhiller, still is of course. I tried pretty hard to get him on GT in 04', but we couldn't make it work. He has a very similar DH style to EC in this video.

Reply to Is 4X dying? 2/16/2011 10:34 AM

Graves, epic post, the sport should be thankful to have someone as talented and insightful as you. But ease up on the america bashing, last I checked Yeti, Fox, Oakley, Monster, Nema were all cutting your checks from 'america'. (Internet disclaimer: ... more »

-not 'up in arms' or 'bent'. -not trolling, just thought it a bit of a crazy notion....but then again, I have no idea what trolling means. -comparing WC MTB to surfing? that comparison fails quickly when you remember the surfing field HAS to be smaller, ... more »

Reply to Too many people in the world cup 5/23/2010 8:11 AM

I am pretty sure this topic was brought up to get more forum views, because this is the most idiotic post I have read in here. I wish there were 450 riders trying to qualify, as nevegal used to be back in the day and nevegal always had the highest ratings ... more »

Bootes' test was a positive for a 'party' drug, not a PED like steroids.

I love XCing in mammoth, been on my bike all around the world and it's still my favorite place to ride.

I just like the fact Spomer put 2 pentagrams in his logo. Very edgy.
