These points will count towards overall (we have to have points to run the game and they automatically get tallied to overall). I’d mentioned at beginning of year that’s there’s no overall competition this year tho. I’ll throw top 5 some shirts or something

Consumers aren't good (or maybe just don't waste time over it obsessively like I do) at finding deals... You can have a pretty fucking tricked out bike for like $4k. Spend 3-3.5k on a nice sale with good suspension. Spend the rest customizing with choice cockpit and tasteful anodized parts. I paid $307 for carbon Elitewheels before tariffs (THANKS TRUMP)...
Much like Jason's Stumpy, my Sentinel is pretty much my don't-worry-about-weight bike, so I can't complain. It is definitely a bit of a bear in comparison to my 120/140 steel bike which is 29-31 pounds depending on what parts I'm running, but they complement each other well. Average weight of a Stumpy 15 alloy on our sales floor is about 37 pounds, which is only a pound less than the Status 170. It's a portly frame for sure.

Plenty of towns in America looking to attract employers, employees, and tourists and plenty of rich people looking to do some charity to improve their standing in peoples minds. Sure bentonville probably is not repeatable on that scale but plenty of places can certainly look at it as a model where investing in the outdoors is paying off for the community.

The Elite standings tightened quite a bit. Jackson's lead in the standings is now only 25 points and Gracey has pulled within 59 points of 1st.

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.

Looks like rain overnight into the morning but nothing like it was for practice day
