Why would you put a dampener in there, who wants the fork to get wet?

Yes, Bryn only rides OG High Rollers...from a particular batch produced in 2016, aged in a temperature and humidity controlled cellar, and pre-conditioned with extra virgin olive oil prior to riding.

Sooo, after the first night of the inaugural Vegas Grand Prix how’s everyone feeling about turning DH into F1?

Usually has to do with unsprung weight and how that affects suspension

You could also be like Specialized and copy someone else's homework and the patent it as your own.

This years team rumours thread is one of the worst. No hype. No good rumours. A bunch of bitching and name drops. Dick swinging competition followed by gossip and other bs.

Please no on the PVD part. Not sure how many people have interacted with him, but seeing his comments in the framebuilders group on Facebook and the garbage and and hate he manages to type up make @bizutch seem like a teddy bear... He is utterly incapable of holding a conversation, can only handle confirmation of his views.

Not accurate. Plus none of the teams like going there and the track is sub par at best. Lodging was twice as expensive as Lenzerheide which was ridiculous because the rental houses are really run down.

Yup, missed that one. Was marshal'ing XC when that race was going on and didn't watch the JR race. Was that guy just trying to cross the track? Because while bad, that's not nearly as bad as the MSA dude. Good point on the super-fans, but given't the amount of beer (or moonshine) flowing on the hill, it can be a short trip from super-fan into a super-idiot.

I'd been working in IDB's for 20 years and just needed a job through the lockdown- I thought, 'how bad could it be?'. I found out.

A World Cup at Whiteface would be awesome, but pretty sure this is just a rumor. They have no DH trails left and as Heikki Hall said, they would have to start from scratch. Currently, they still run the lift in the summer but do not allow MTBs on their mountain. The XC scene is growing there but they also do not allow E-Bikes on any trails in the town of Wilmington and pretty sure E-Bikes are in some of the WC races. They never liked having DH MTB or even downhillers there in the summer because they do not...

It is a flat track, and you are allowed to think that this is not what is good for the sport you are at the top of, no ? If you go extreme, why not add the sea otter to a world cup, it is still downhill in the end. Yet it is not what I or Loris think downhill should be. Some guys might even like Sea otter track, it doesn't make it a good downhill track. And this season Bruni is the fastest on all the flat sectors, so he doesn't need straight ski slopes, he needs flat...
