I just spit my water out, that was hilarious. Lighten up Francis.

Agreed, he is an announcer. His job is to speak clearly so everyone listening understands what he is saying. Claudio has a pretty thick accent and English is not his first language but we could understand him. I don't know Ric, I bet he's a nice guy. However, he wasn't very good at announcing. AG came in with zero experience and did a better job of preparing (researching the athletes, asking them questions about the track, their season, their health, etc.) and a much better job speaking. Aaron was easy to understand and much more informative, all without stepping on...

what’s the point if the viewer doesn’t understand him though?

I think he got better towards the end of the year. Cedric was the worst of the commenting IMO. Ric did a really good job a few years ago doing the EWS highlight videos. Seems like he is the guy in the booth moving forward so hopefully he keeps improving.

Hosted by Ric McLaughin.....for me that's reason enough not to listen to it, based off the terrible commentary we've had to endure during the world cups in 2023 Next...

Would you ride a cube if you weren't getting paid to ride it?

He's not going to be riding it this season so there's no reason to ride it now when he could be getting more comfortable on what he might/will be riding this season instead

In my opinion, such an action would be absolutely... Forbidden.

Ho no, you speak logical when we just want drama.

That is flat out dissregarding what and who probably (amongst a very few others) paved the way to what you froth arround today. Go play some minecraft now..

I think they mean transmission as in drive-train. Not specifically wireless?

Union team will be on trek frames, all sram/rockshox transmission suspensions and brakes, enve wheels and still on deity. I've seen one of them on the hills.

I think I speak for most people when I say we just want to see him happy and hauling down a fast downhill track, regardless of results, but sadly that's not how World Cup downhill always works, so fingers crossed for the Bulldog, especially after one of the most horrible crashes we've seen at a World Cup in recent times, and the very very impressive recovery that has followed

Has he gotten along with any bikes since he was on Trek World Racing forever ago? At some point you have to start looking at yourself and your decision making. And to that effect, why would anyone pay him to ride their bike if he has not produced results in a few seasons at this point and has a reputation for being negative about his equipment.

If RJ Chicken and Sons can collect, they might be able to sponsor Hart.

Ya can’t just keep popping in here like a regular-ass person. It freaks me out … It’s Benoit, innit? Fabian talking English to throw us off, not something obvious like a reflection on a chrome espresso machine handle. I mean, who’d do that …

Who did you say it was, I forgot…
