10/17/2023 12:20pm I would talk with Jeremiah from Team Trail Party. He's the one who's organized all the DHR and TTP races (at Angelfire, Pajarito, Durango, etc..). He's extremely passionate about gravity racing in the US (and especially West of the Mississippi).

10/16/2023 7:18am I'm glad it's not just me! I had the exactly same issue with listening to Needles. He seems like a good guy and seems to be universally liked... but dang he talks over all his guests. Constantly interrupts them. It's almost uncomfortable to listen to him and Sven. I think that it's because they know each other well and like...

10/11/2023 1:15pm I've been thinking a lot on this as well, especially after listening to Bruni's interview with Jackie. I agree that the lack of head2head racing is one of the major distinguishers from F1. This affects the sport in a variety of ways. It's also one of the things that athletes and fans list as a reason for loving the sport...

10/11/2023 7:33am The IG post looks like it's in slow mo from how long he hangs in the air. Insane how long he is in the air.. you can almost see the effects of wind and such as he drifts down.

10/10/2023 5:56pm Don’t worry! Lots of vital experts will be along to tell you that the people in the pits have had the full schedule/calendar for weeks now and how you’re ignorant and just an alarmist ESO hater.

10/10/2023 11:42am I like Loic, but I think he's bought into the DHI could be like F1 hype. I'm sure it's appealing to him as one of the top riders, coming from a country that elevates cycling disciplines to more prominence than many others and puts a lot of energy into their youth development programs. In addition, he's on one of the...

10/7/2023 6:18am No. Everyone else has listened to interviews with managers and riders who have straight up said that they have less information than is ideal. I’m agnostic on ESO. I’m just going off what I’ve heard racers say, on the record, in interviews.

10/6/2023 6:45am Anyone know what happened to Evan Medcalf? Doesn’t seem to have taken a quali run at all?

I know this is the internet, but multiple things can be true at the same time. Could Gwin have been wanting to help a fellow 'merican? yes. Could it have not been possible to sign him for more based on the teams budget mid way through the year? yes. Could Dak have deserved better compensation? Yes. IFR could have "taken advantage" of the opportunity to sign Dak for less than they may have if the situation was different. "Taken advantage" does not have to be framed in the context of abusing a situation or person. It could just be that...

He is doing well. He is out of the hospital with a couple broken ribs, but feeling good no concussion or anything. He is in good spirits.

10/4/2023 7:48am Neko said the same in the Working Class USDH podcast. Said they don't have the information they need about locations, venues, coverage, costs, etc.. to confidently approach potential sponsors with a detailed package. Maybe they've released the dates/venues privately.. but there are other details the teams need which still haven't been released but have customarily been pushed out by this...

10/3/2023 11:09am It's also insane that full schedule and full details on next season isn't out for next year. Neko brought it up on the "Working Class of #USDH" podcast that Jackie Ricecakes did from the pits... but how are teams supposed to come to their sponsors with asks when the "package" hasn't even been revealed as of yet. They're seriously making...

9/13/2023 12:47pm The word after last year was that the organizers weren't happy with him "breaking the rules" with the rail that he hid on course then had his builders set up just as he started his run.

9/12/2023 1:27pm Hah. Olly Wilkins and Davy have talked pretty extensively about how urban DH should become its own sport and have a heavy marketing push to make it more popular. Some of the reasoning makes sense to me: 1) Ready-made live audience in population centers of race. 2) The "scale" makes more sense as people understand a bike dropping out of...
