hourly forecast for tomorrow. if accurate, rain subsides as elite men drop in (revelli goes at 1:10pm). hopefully it's consistent for everyone. also curious how pinned riders really gunning for world champs will be tomorrow.

Would be sick if Sleeper filmed with and old Alex Rankin style camera would look like something out of an old Earthed the music is on point every time.

ya juniors should be sprinkled into most videos that are just covering 'the race' in its entirety. ed masters usually gives the juniors their time in his vids. but otherwise im not sure what video somebody would want in terms of juniors specifically.

and sadly being an XC weekend we can't even be offered a cool 'qualifying highlights' show as has been done in the past. funny how that great idea almost seemed like a mistake when it was clear they weren't going to do it at most rounds. these guys gotta read the room.

and now we dont even get free juniors races on youtube right? another thing they added... and took away. it really is poor management of what could otherwise be a solid package of media. welp, back to sleuthing social media for random, disparate morsels of content about the races.

You know T.Kitaen wasn’t in the band right?

Bonus for being the only other Tawny in history though. 

so it was just white snakes as in your word for little finger roots? I’m furious. 

double bonus point for making me look at all their song titles and reminding me that Whitesnake had a handful of indisputable perfect songs. 

I heard Sublime “What I Got” this morning and holy shit there’s no worse song!


Hyped for race.

Your take on Sublime reminds me of the Nick Cave quote “I’m forever near a stereo saying, ‘What the fuck is this garbage?’ And the answer is always the Red Hot Chili Peppers.”

If it’s this exciting from a spreadsheet, imagine how insane it would be to have actually been able to watch those runs.. 

Juniors are something else.
