Adrian Dailly was riding a Bronson right? So I think that's the first time someone's won the Men's Overall not on a full 29 in a long time.

can you folks screencap what I assume to be instagram posts for those of us who don't have or want the socials tracking us and have our computers set up in that manner? Else we just get empty posts and contextless replies. thank you for your attention to this matter.

It's definitely the first time the overall was won on a Santa Cruz bike. And weirdly enough, only the second time ever when men's overall was won by a French, given how dominant they are in the sport (only Jerome Clementz won it before in the inaugural 2013 season).

I am a fan of Ronan Dunne but is “The King” applicable here? Is this a Black Mamba self-nickname situation, an out-of-touch UCI thing, or even something he’s been called? 

Bruni is our King, with twin Maple Princes Finnley and Boostboi as Heir and a Spare. Amaury Pierrron our gladiator knight Smashalot. 

I’m thinking those 80s sports poster vibes…marketing departments please make a series of these. Remember these?

Seattle raised so I remember Dale Ellis Silent Assassin and Steve Largent Dipshit Congressman or whatever.

Generally speaking, Irish people arn't particularly fond of monarchies... there were a lot of other ways they could have phrased that

It takes some real talent to kill a discipline everyone already does by default

This!

That they couldnt translate the hype of modern mountain biking is remarkable. Ripping insane trails in far-flung locales and it’s a snooze!
