I raised my bar 5 mm the other day so everything is balanced in the universe

Did I really just win this round ? Are the results confirmed?

In his vlog, Laly mentioned that the assigned pit space would have been like 2kmaway from the track, so they have set up the pit at their accomodation as well.

Moat likely a new DH helmet based on the SM10 design.

It's not really looking good, is it? But let's wait til friday morning when bikes start ripping up the berms.

If Enduro at the world level dies off, I fear all other forms of enduro racing at a lower level will as well. If they want to only have E-Enduro, that is where the budget will go. The same happened when they killed 4X, lots of people migrated to other forms of racing.

One can get last place and still have the right to complain if they feel like organizers messed up.

You mean like a regular MX steering damper? If so, it wouldn't provide much damping at low degrees of bar turn. There was some discussion on this in the comment section of WRP IG account.

That design has been around for ages, it's not like it has been something that Specialized suddenly brought up again. Funnily enough, I watched that video of the 69er yesterday, such a cool bike.

I think it is that kind of silver/black actuator like the one on his bike.

PB had all the juicy photos of Bruni's bike . They were testing rotor covers. You can al so see the bike with the cover off. There is also a brace on the derailleur hanger, I am too out of the loop on transmission stuff to know if it a stock piece. Looks like it is an electric motor that...

Chris Hauser 🇮🇹 is out, too banged up to race after the crash in practice.

Finals will be regularly broadcasted. Just not for free like last year.

Worst thing is that they had cameras on for the semis. They showed them on the big screen on-site. A bloody YT/Twitch stream would have been perfectly fine and cheap!

In the latest MoiMoit tv O'Callaghan said it was a bit slick at the top. A few top riders crashed. Fastest times were also slower than the qualy.

article 4.11.014: Protected riders to the semi-final are: 1. riders with season long race numbers (i.e. ranked in the top 5 women elite and the top 10 men elite of the final UCI World Cup standings of the previous season) 2. the best ranked riders from the current UCI World Cup standings, that are not included in point 1 above...

Incredible video by the folks at MTB news.de. Feels like being there. You really get a feel for the track.

I was watching Bruni's Gopro footage from Fort William practice, and something caught my eye. From the footage you can actually see when he switches between damping modes from the LEDs on his stem. It happens at least 3 times: 1) blue mode off the start till at least the wood section (I did not check if he switches anything...

Looks like Vali made a mistake in sector 3 that cost her the quali win. Nicole, Farina, and Blewitt did not make the cut.

(Tin foil hat on) riders are going to complain they are absolutely pointless now > Gives UCI/ESO a reason to get rid of them next year (Tin foil hat off). In reality, decisions have been happening behind closed doors, so it's hard to understand what is going on.
