9/26/2019 6:20am Gum X is "harder" than Magi X. Gum x is probably like maxxis maxxterra and Maxi X is probably more like maxxgrip or supertacky

The Shiver legitimately changed my life. I sucked at riding bikes when I first started racing. I was around some fast dudes, and I so desperately wanted to be fast, but I wasn't. The Shiver let me do things I couldn't have done on any other fork. It was so incredibly forgiving. It let me lean back, hold on, and hope for the best, which usually worked out. The first race I had it on was Snowmass, the first time the Banzai course was ever taped. I remember riding down that with DCamp leading on an Azonic with a Super...

is it funny/ironic/on purpose that the iphone 11 became available on the no-internet-strike day?

I worked at Marzocchi during the Shiver days... So many people claimed the fork was too flexy... But, I have never ridden a more forgiving fork... Especially in the rock gardens... Every other 2 wheeled motor sport has realized that stiffer isn't necessarily better... We could go back to full oil bath forks... Smoother action, less maintenance but more weight...

hahahah. i will say seeing the strike footage/photos (picking shots of the biggest crowds for the most impact) was a bit of a bummer. wouldn't it make sense if the strikers had nothing unnecessary with them and one sign at the front of the crowd? the amount of signs and paint and potential litter/landfill material consumed by protesters was pretty obvious disappointing. i know, i know, it's easy to critique the efforts of those wanting to make a positive impact, and MANY of the signs looked like re-used pieces of cardboard. it just seemed like a no-brainer - protest about...

9/23/2019 10:44am Man, everyone has so much motivation everywhere you look to put in the work off season. Maes will be beyond driven after the suspension, Rude the same. Florian has tasted it & will want that top notch. Sam is driven by the slow start to show up healthy in the spring, Daily will want to get back to form, Miguel is starting to believe, Ravanel, Oton & Melamed will be hungry to show up healthy. Neer now knows he belongs & is gonna scare some. It's like the World Cup...if you never got to see video.

when i received the email blast about the specialized site being down on friday, the cynic in me wondered how much energy was used in creating and sending that email blast. did their initiative need to be signaled ahead of time? could they have saved X% more energy by not even announcing the initiative and just letting people learn about it if they visited specialized.com on friday? re: durability of product - such a difficult discussion and slippery slope, but a worthy discussion. jeff, i think you're an exception to wearing out products faster than the bulk of bike riders...
