You didn’t get this from me.

Ok do we just start sending someone to marshal races from now on? With the added mspaint line overlays, we are literally in the inside line

R&D at Rockshox may not get the idea. But dimpling is less efficient when you could rib the fork for the riders pleasure. I dont know just my 2 cents.

I just gotta say, as far as mtb online community contributions to the lexicon go... crab link is way better then downcountry. Feels the right amount of "inside baseball" and too far out there for the masses to absorb. Feel like this is going to be one of those if you know you know inside jokes for a long time to come. You guys should be satisfied with yourselves lol.

From the pits in Lake Placid today (Pit Bits vid coming in a few hours). What looks like dimples on the stanchion of a Boxxer, I'd assume to reduce friction. Forum expert opinion thoughts?

This is good to hear. I remember back in the late 80s, when lots of state offices just went ahead and shut mountain biking down in State Parks. Pennsylvania did this for sure, but I believe it was "a thing" in other states, as well, and in federal lands too. It was a combined effort of horse-back-riders, hikers, and birders, that basic closed access to many areas, and it took a decade before some of that started to roll-back.

Full replays from FloBikes:

There is a growing scene here. While things were regressing about 12-15 years ago, the last 7+ have seen major growth. We went from zero bike parks to five (two government-funded), loads of trail centers, a few "official," but most not so official, and government-funded pump tracks. The number of riders has been increasing, yet the mountain bike race scene has been dying. But that's more of an issue with event organizers seeing gran fondos as exponentially more profitable. Riders would love to have a proper race series again, rather than just a few events a year, and this is...

That's the spirit

My only goal in the overall is to beat Schroeder. That's it and that's all. Man vs man. Ginger vs ginger.

I see you TLD... (circa 2013)

There you have it people, the current pricing trend is Tim's fault for designing the 10k Felt road bike back in the late 00's.
