Looking at the top 10 times at the downhill southeast this weekend, half of the top 10 times were kids 17 and under. In my opinion the USDH scene is about to get really young and fast. Those 5 young guns are: Asa Vermette, Lucas Dedora, Chris Liebig, Charlie Golwyn and Collier Key

Two more weekends with no East Coast USDH races to go before the opening round of Downhill Southeast at the Trials Training Center in Southeast Tennessee... The Gravity Cooperative Crew has been busy on the podcast talking to key USDH players as they prep for liftoff in 2024. We had Ryan Pinkerton on the podcast this week and I can say the kid is absolutely ready to crush it in Elite this year on the new Mondraker Factory Racing team. Check out the episode on any podcast platform. https://open.spotify.com/episode/14NFktipou0aROyYqHLA6r?si=7sgVbv2cSrmm… Who think's Pinky has a podium performance in him this year...

Gwin to Southern Gravity Racing along with a couple of juniors and a up and rising elite men's rider. Heard it straight from one of Sean's pigs in exchange for some kitchen scraps.

Him sharing a post someone else made referencing a barhump? Really grasping at straws here aren't we?

So BME (and BMD) just quietly swapped their second round from Ride Rock Creek to Windrock. TRP is a title sponsor and they’re advertising their connection with Gwin in the promotion for TRP as a sponsor. I don’t hate the change or anything, but it’s weird to just change it without any kind of announcement or explanation.

Got this from Outlaw a bit ago. Outlaw United still has a couple seats open on their World Cup team. If you are interested in racing World Cups, have an Elite or U19 license, and think you have what it takes - get over there and fill out the expression of interest form. Outlaw’s Team manager will get back to highest ranked applicants with a proposal. Deadline for UCI contract signatures, safe sport, and Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport educational submittals is end of day Friday, January 5, 2024. https://www.outlawbiketeam.com/ https://www.instagram.com/outlaw.united/

So I’m curious, since Vital MX has the Fantasy League for SMX now, does that mean we’ll get one for DH here?

oddly enough, i just received a text from AT&T saying "don't forget that Max is already included with your wireless plan at no additional cost, download the Max app etc..." I had no idea. So for me, it should be similar to what I paid for GCN last year. I'll take it.

My turn to chime in...... While I agree with almost most of you, not all, but most. Plain and simple. Money. Money is the root of all evil. I did pay for GCN last year because I've never missed a race in almost 20 years. I do wake up at 2am, 3 am, 4am because nothing beats live coverage. Highlights are cool and all. But nothing beats live coverage. Do I think 2023 coverage was up to par. Sure. Absolutely. Drones were troubling at times. To the one commenting on Rob and what not. Yes. Ric and Cedric need some...

Sorry to change the subject, but does anyone know if there is a 2024 USDH National series? With the announcement of the 2024 US Open and the Tennessee National both having dates you'd think it would be public. I know last year there was a 3 race series, however I don't think it was points paying and I'm pretty sure...
