Ride Companion doing another Rob Warner commentary 🤘

I probably put 35 trees through my fire place every winter

Watching the first women take to the track after watching riders like Asa and Jackso is going to be immensely underwhelming many will just turn off the broadcast It's just a token virtue signal by the organisers

Beaumont has zero energy. Josh Carlson did a better job in my opinion. “Not great, not terrible.” Now that he’s down in the pits with that girl, they aren’t utilizing him. WYN though? He’d kill it. More than a few people recognize this… https://www.instagram.com/reel/DX7cITLt8v4/?igsh=MWF3M3F3MGliem14bQ==

I wonder (and I'm just thinking out loud) if there is a chance that two wildly different places in the world might have different soil conditions that are affected by weather differently?

How is the mood in the team regarding Daprelas allegations and departure from other teams in recent seasons? do you feel comfortable having younger female racers around someone with SA accusations?

They shouldn't have tried to make it in anyway live. Check out on YT the previous race coverage from 2018/2019 - you had Ric riding the stages before hand with Chris Ball (before he sold out) doing a preview, and then a what happened last time video and finally a results video - they were a much better format for coverage. Edit - when I say live I mean televised. Live timing results - definitely good.

Jack Moir and Edbull Masters to WarnerBros micros instead of Ric McLaughlin and the other aussie

Greenland to Frameworks?

Who has told them they are good at this, let alone better?

I’m gonna disagree. First off. No one is watching WC downhill that isn’t a huge fan of Mtbs already. Making the broadcast 30-60 minutes isn’t gonna change that. It’s hard to even find the broadcast if you are looking for it. No one is stumbling across it. So let’s not pretend making it shorter will bring in more fans. If you want it to be shorter watch it for time delay and fast forward. Second, you guys kinda mentioned it on the last podcast, but there should be less emphasis on qualies, not more. I feel like there is currently...

Trouble is, with fewer riders on track come race day the more reason to not bother attending and the flatter the atmosphere becomes. So much talk about TV coverage, but it gets less and less appealing as a live spectator as numbers are cut. I've attended Fort Bill 3 times over the years, I'd already think twice now with reduced riders on track to watch.

All we wanted was televised Q1/2 what is this nonsense

let's say ronan had "stronger" rims or ran cushcore. would they allow him to ride like he does or would they ping-pong-ball off of every rock resulting in considerably slower results or blown lines? would cushcore be heavier and slower resulting in a different riding style and slower time? racing, especially now, is a battle of compromises. sometimes they pay off, sometimes they don't.

Since you don't understand this, I'll explain. World Cup teams annihilate wheels all week long. Most of the wheels can make it back to the pits. A new wheel goes on for the next run. No one says a word & it gets rebuilt. One team...1 rider this weekend....annihilated SIX wheels before Finals. Their teammate nuked only ONE wheel a week after smashing multiple wheels. That plays out w/ every team & you aren't privy to it. Pros don't melt over wheels. It's been that way since the beginning. Every pit, every rider is cracking or splitting wheels. They just...

He can sit there, as long as Neko mentions that he 'just wasnt taking no for an answer' during his race run.

Could be an improvement 🤣

Rumour has it that Ric and Josh might be pulling out all stops at MSA and saving their best commentary for last. Sounds like there is plan to use the words " Penultimate " and "Goolie" together in one sentence 327 times over the broadcast weekend . Lucky us🤣
