That’s the Nats where he raced with the shell of skate helmet padded only by his dreadlocks right?

THIS - I would hate it when people came in to the shop after a ride in their stinky top and knee pads around the ankles. It's not hard to at least have a clean t-shirt in the car to throw on afterwards, or a full change if you're not going straight home from the ride too

I followed his FaceBook account as he went all over the world. He did a combo of working his ass off at odd jobs and getting free stuff from people from all over inspired by his adventures. The 2 that stick in my head are hiking the PCT in just mesh sneakers and bikepacking crazy rural parts of India. I learned a boatload about the real world over there from his pics & updates. Was pretty jealous of how much help people threw at him. He'd have nothing. Was good with it. And people would always show kindness & give...

Anything but steel for a frame is crazy Suspension is for those who have no skill Every descent has to be earned with a climb Disc brakes are a solution in search of a problem If you can’t ride a single speed stick to the walking path (Sarcasm 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻)

Let's take a poll. I'm hearing both sides of the discussion about South Korea. Some love the fact that the track is raw, unraked and required the lines be bedded in by riders today in the first practice sesh. Others are saying that should never be the case because it's dangerous and there's not much actual practice for race day happening because the lines are changing so often. What are your thoughts? Should most of the large, loose rocks be removed from the track before the first practice? Obviously the track will deteriorate over time, but is it fair to...

What's the point of a new track if the goal is to burn it in like a well known track already... Now, gap jumps up top with nearly 90 degree corners before them and exposed to whatever wind or thick air is siting up top... That's another poll but you probly don't even need to make it.

Raw makes for a much more even playing field. Only thought would be to have more Pro non-competitors test ride the track a few weeks in advance of race weekend to confirm safety.

just rewatched some of the La Thuile track walk from last year and the comments from the racers are the same. It’s raw and will change a lot once it gets ridden

I like the raw tracks and it will bed in I’m sure but some of those loose square rocks should be raked out for rider/spectator safety. The big dirt step down/ jump seems like it needs to be reworked almost every person was casing it.
