As a Brit who is used to riding muddy trails in the trees, Bootleg Canyon was a complete shock when I rode there. It's basically the exact opposite conditions.

Bootleg anti grip is real man. I broke an axle on trail 3 when I was like 12 because my front wheel wash and went into a rock at a weird angle.

The ol' poop shoot! The riding at Bootleg is rad great shuttle service.

Bootleg Canyon is the equivalent of a cheese grater, but for humans.

some wintertime #USDH goodness. fastest time of the day at the 2025 Southwestern Regional Gravity Champs with Connor Clifford and a vlog from Ignite Racing and Fontana #1 with insane winds

A LOT of anticipation/expectation around Aletha's (Ally O's 😁) upcoming season. My thinking is that joining Canyon Collective sets her up well for it. I'm trying out the "Ally O" thing. Maybe it will stick. Maybe I'll get a thump on the head next time she spots me.

Rumor confirmed!

Rego and lift passes combined works out to be $140.

Its better news than that. Apparently theres a rolldown. Where if a rider getting a top 5 already has qualification through their Elite team, the spots roll down. So from this one today (after the elite team status is finalised by UCI), elite men in 6th/7th/8th today (at a minimum) will end up Golden ticket spots. And some roll down in other categories too

First Golden Tickets for world cup entry M Elite Ronan, Lachie, Tuhoto-Ariki, Ollie Davis, Sam Gale W Elite Jenna Hastings, Sacha Earnest, Bailey Goldstone, Kalani Muirhead M Juniors, Tyler Waite, Rory Meek, Oli Clark, Jonty Williamson, Malik Boatwright W Juniors Eliana Hulsebosch, Bellah Birchall, Roisin Mcguiness, Elleni Turkovic, Matilda Henness

One page back. This thread moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. (With apologies to Ferris)

Americans Bode Burke and Matilda Melton on Commencal/Schwalbe Les Ores! Congrats kid!

Yep, she is still racing age 16. Next year Aletha will be eligible.

In 2025, The first rider to win a World Cup on a belt drive bike will be in the junior category. A elite rider on a belt drive bike will not win a World Cup in 2025

skip to 10m 30sec, Seth makes a good point here. Puts the companies on blast a bit.

I do hope we'll see smaller teams start to form for the Continental series and those series get the attention they should. With the exception of the Americas series, which is an insane amount of traveling spread over an entire year, the Euro and Oceania series look pretty doable for smaller teams and brands with former WC and up and coming riders to tackle. I hope they are also steamed in some capacity.
