That's quite the assumption. Do you have anything concrete to go off of with that or are you just feelin' vibes? Just as wild an assumption (I don't know anything other than I liked Pivot's bikes and then I found out about the team and started and continue to pay attention to BK's videos like I do many other riders'...

A boy can have more than one grip design he likes. Burgtec could spin it like "when the old man was fast he used these." I have no idea how this will all shake out and I have no knowledge of this situation at all. I have a little knowledge of how these things sometimes work out in the music/musician/musical...

I don't remember seeing in the UCI documents anything saying a team member has to race in any of the races in order to contribute points. So, Dak might be contributing to Mondraker's total even if he can't race until late in the season. If he's ON the team and he's inside of the constraint of "maximum of four riders...

I read it all. I read all of his posts. They're interesting, Jeff seems knowledgeable, and any insight into the machinations of that world are thought provoking. I have very little interest in or ability to take part in big money finance or business. But I'm curious. I like to understand why people do what they do, why things that...

Lots of nice comments about Rockys; I certainly appreciate it. I have faith that something will transpire over the next few months and Rocky will emerge on the other side a better company. The brand is very strong and there are many passionate but also smart people that want to see it carry on. In the meantime I'll be skiing and biking for the remainder of the winter.

Did you'll hear about Rocky Mountain, eh? Hopefully they can pull through.. Would suck to lose another iconic brand..

Just read on the news outlets that 6 different posts above me are reporting Rocky Mountain has filed for bankruptcy protection. I hope things continue to be posted above and below me.
I completely agree with the alcohol. For the past decade or so I had always traded on and off weed or booze. Recently with property taxes due I had to get my finances in order and I completely cut out both. Now two months later I am convinced alcohol is poison. No amount is healthy and provides absolutely no benefits to your health or life.

Snails and Pernod? Anyway, there's an Atherton vid talking harder about family than Dom Toretto, except it's about Kolb and Charlie, which can only mean one of two things: either they're staying, or they're leaving.

Yeah unsurprisingly when you outsource all of your technology production for 30 or 40 years, those people get really really good at it...... especially when it comes to manufacturing something to a price. I'm sure a lot of western companies could build a great competitor to DJI but it might cost about three times as much! Are people willing to pay that much for something just because it isn't Chinese? We also forget that products made in China aren't sometimes bad because of where they are made, they are bad because they were made to a spec and a price...
