rf ambush all the way.. all the time

Cathro is officially planning on joining the World Cup circuit again! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UK3izgwjcss

WTF! Team rumours people! Team rumours! this isn’t the girls toilets of some high school... who cares if they have something going on, that between them! we want to know who’s shifting team and to what team. Start another post if you are really that much into people relationships.

Troy signed with Canyon for another 3 years. It's here on WynTV if you want to check it out: https://youtu.be/K11q7vCGML4 ?t=640

Yip, I’m pretty aware he did only one race in them. Wasn’t the point I was trying to make. It’s no big deal what riders wear... as long as they feel comfortable. I don’t know why people were making a big deal about jeans. I know Plamer was trying to make his point to his then sponsors at the time and he looked awesome doing it... so they were awesome jeans.

"triggered" is right, holy smokes man. Prediction: Canadian jrs continue to crush it with minimal factory support.

Love you Stik but this is a bit of a misread IMO. I can go to TJ Max and get a super durable pair of jeans for about $20. They'll outlast any DH pant I've ever had. Do they function as well? Heck no! They don't breath, are heavy and can cause some serious chafing issues! He was just being honest, and explaining why he races in jeans. As home_piece said, it could be an opportunity for a soft goods company, especially if he finds his way onto the podium next year. You could also make some seriously funny jokes...

The opportunity to learn from him and make better ones?

Either you are a doctor, a WADA official or a total esoteric nerd. I'd NEVER think to apply for a TUE (in real time) or similar for a medicine that is designed to help me keep my leg during an infection that is known to have ZERO performance enhancing effects. Especially when my team manager has asked the doctors (DOCTORS, not nurses or EMTs) what they think, and a DOCTOR administered it. Pushing some paperwork around and risking your leg is the most stupid, idiodic thing I've ever heard. Safety of the rider should be first. Not paperwork. If you...

Using this logic, no one can know for sure *anything*. Maybe everyone else is taking a masking agent that is so good the ENTIRE EWS is doping! Maybe Sam Hill is in fact an alien from a different planet. We can't know for sure, after all. Again, common sense has to prevail. This case is so damn obvious. Two doctors. A gash to his leg. An infection. He would have been granted a TUE had the whole process not been so fucked in the first place. This is absofuckinglotely ridiculous. Anyone arguing to the contrary makes me cringe, not just...

Can we all go back to focusing on world cup DH now. Everyone bitched and moaned that world cup wasnt rad enough, EWS was so much better, bla bla f-ing bla. World Cup DH is still the greatest, too much drama in the spirit of enduro haha.

Riders should stage a boycott until the EWS gets their shit together. This is just plain crazy.

So the lifetime ban rule...that got scrapped pretty quick didn’t it. Though it was part of the 2018 rules, Richie got caught in 2018, so there’s an argument that the rule book from the time should apply

it is obvious that PR people do not respect fans with statements such as: I accidentally slept the wrong water. An identical PR stunt, as with Gwin that his mechanic accidentally used a three-year old crank. Such statements are offensive!!
