I would laugh if they move all the markers the day before track walk

Loic has the budget to travel to tracks and ride them whenever he wants. Loic just likes having an advantage over the other riders.

If they don't want people practicing on the taped course, then they need to close it down or disallow it in the rulebook. Otherwise... these are professional athletes whose livelihoods depend on performance. They are going to seek every advantage they can, regardless of whether it's against the "spirit" of the sport or not. Same thing is happening at Big Mountain Enduro right now, with several professional teams already at Mt. Nebo this past weekend. The courses aren't taped yet, but everyone knows what the courses will be, so it's a pretty big advantage to get multiple extra days. Regardless...

2014: The Spirit of Enduro Movement - "It's not in the spirit of enduro to pre-ride or go to venues early." 2021: The Spirt of Gravel Movement - "It's not in the spirit of gravel to use team tactics or attack at feedzones." 2024: The Spirit of Downhill Movement - "It's not in the spirit of downhill to wear skinsuits."

Just let them where skinsuits at this point

Sounds like Brendog is officially done with World Cup racing altogether rather than doing the usual select events throughout the year.

This photo shows the vest. I originally thought it was arms all in one. This seems legit to go around the rules “one piece” but the skin suit definition is getting blurry for many riders.

I like the idea of the pants/vest + Jersey, I thought it was long sleeve like what Christain Craig raced in SX. I think it looks sick, it’s not any tighter than what Loic and Finn ride.

The shorts bounty is more important than ever now...

ms intense pits! who needs tents and poles when you can make a glass building? (vid in our insta stories)

Mondraker pit looking awesome!

Imagine spending all that cash to land the GOAT and then doing... this.

Interesting design they've cooked up. Putting the rumors that Minnaar is past his prime on ice. My crystal ball says Gracey is gonna have a big result in Ft. Bill. Taking a METHodical approach to racing.

Probably the best thing for Enve. Once Amer sold off Mavic it left Enve as the only Amer brand in the cycling space. It would just continue to float about on its own without any support from Amer, but still be expected to contribute.

https://www.bicycleretailer.com/industry-news/2024/04/30/enve-gm-says-b… The new env owner apparently is a newly minted/self made billionare from the company he founded who lives 20 minutes away, owns two of their bikes and whose son had a summer job building wheels there. Honestly sounds like the best buyer they could hope for. It also seems like its not a crazy time to be investing in US manufacturing.

Here we go again.....

Looks like FOX wont be the only ones with gold on the front of bikes this year 👀 the return of Ti Nitrate??
