Stacked field and the best-looking DH track I've ever seen. This should be a fun watch, both tomorrow, and in October.

1199 in Whistler is going to be a spectacle. After a couple days of rain the sun has come out. It was still a bit wet in a few spots but generally perfect conditions on track yesterday for first practice, and the weather looks great for seeding and racing as well. A good mix of young rippers, dark horses, and some World Cup riders. Jackson is flying, Asa and Gwin looked good too. Some other fast dudes as well but I didn't have my start list handy so I'm not sure who I was looking at. Great spectator access all...

Awesome to see how deep the US field is, and how well-spoken all the riders are. Dylan not blaming his P2 on a flat front tire--great attitude, man!

Very cool that the French Nationals results look so well-organized, and, more importantly, that they show each athlete's sponsor, no matter how "big" the sponsor is (I'm guessing that "Riding Family" is a mom / pop). It used to piss me off when I win / podium a race, and the race promoter's would omit my sponsor's (typically a bike...

Googled old Mads, fully expecting a mushroom-top, or blatant-us-of-hair product. Nope, just a crew cut. This guy must be salty as an old sea hag.

I did a bunch of anit-funk research and testing when selecting fabrics for my Abit Gear shorts/pants. I ended out using Nylon for reasons, including it being inherently low-funk. Most helmet pads are polyester. The challenge is that polyester has near-zero moisture regain. Almost no moisture is absorbed into the fibers themselves and once bacteria take up it's hard AF to get it out. To de-stank polyester gear: Soak for 24 hours in unscented powder detergent, mixed with oxyclean or borax per the containers instructions. The 24 hour part is key here as it takes that long for the solution...

Yes, I've seen Gwin race several times, in-person. Aside from ridiculous speed and precision, he's just a master of not using any more effort than needed. People used to call him boring, say, compared to Bryceland, or later (early) Pierron, etc., but to me racing is about results, and few have compared with him on that. I mean, going from...

Nothing brings you quite as close to the energy of a World Cup weekend as a Sleeper shreddit does - here's the Andorra edition for proof!

Yeah...saw mention by Ryan Sipes in a moto post that everyone sucked at Red Bud because nobody rides trials any more. Tried to think about it but didn't make a lot of sense for the track conditions guys were facing. Now, DH...I remember guys like Dave Cullinan & Tomac getting hung up in DH rock gardes & doing all sorts of track stands , manuals & crank/pedal stabs to get through rock gardens. Almost useless skill on modern tracks since nobody even has a place on track that is slow enough to track stand. Man...trials events at mountain bike races...

I think it was Alex Rudeau who recently posted some trialsin' before an EDR stage. He didn't look like a slouch. I remember at the last EWS in Crested Butte (2014?), being utterly exhausted, pushing my bike to the top of the climb up to Star Pass for stage 2. There was a huge rock pile in the last, maybe...
