Listened to a bit of the Ride Along podcast and realized Team Robot was clearly trying to send us a hidden message in the photo!!! The hands are a dead give away! One is clearly the NC State wolfpack gesture which is a similar species to a fox (aka Fox Factory). The other hand is in a rock-on gesture, so obviously Rockshox. Only “V” on his shirt is visible, which doesn’t mean anything, but when you combine it with the “DC” it forms “VDC” the abbreviation for voltage direct current which is the basis for any battery powered device, including...

thanks for the patience w/ image stuff, we're working on it. in the meantime here's a secret spy shot no one is allowed to see.

You're all optimistic they're gonna pick somewhere cool like Angel Fire, Killington, or Mountain Creek. Deep inside, we all know USAC is going to run it at Winter Park for the next 5 years. You know it to be true. #NORBAstillhatesyou

What a disgrace!! Not only are we a long way from having an established domestic racing series to prepare our athletes for the world cup stage, but while the sport is at an all-time high in terms of participation (there were 40+ middle schoolers racing our local enduro! , the governing bodies and infrastructure to support competitive cycling are sorely lacking. I've been trying to get a response from USAC since October about Nationals, and while they started off answering me politely, they no longer bother replying. It's no wonder our top American athletes aren't showing up to compete in...

beyond racing has evan turpen on the team list. will they be riding the bike he designed?

Wait, what's the theme of this thread again? I didn't know it at that time and overlooked the fact that my bike nook and collection would have been at Mountain Bike museum status today. That one bike I almost wanted to steal at Interbike (or where it sat collecting dust at the Hayes HQ in WI). I don't have too many if any old racing pics of me. Norba National at Snow Summit. 7th place in expert class with two crashes. Future was bright.. lol Pic of The Martins (Anka & Sven - littermag/vital legends) back in their respective...

Another spy shot of the new SRAM drivetrain from the Queenstown Bike Fest. The cranks and bash guard look pretty sweet.

Stages recently sold a big interest in the company to Giant, fwiw. Cycling Electronics is the dumbest market segment. The only electronics I want in mtb is Alex Rankin pointing a VX80 with a fisheye at someone flying sideways.

With Snow Summit (Big Bear) being back up and running for a few years and the former home decades ago of many championship races, I'd love to see that happen.

Bontrager has (or had) the G5’s that they were using for a long time. I hope they keep making them. Really good, somewhat inexpensive DH tires. IMO.

Actual picture of the USAC board dreaming up the esports national championship. I haven't read any of the press releases and I probably won't, but I'm dying to know if people travel to the esports national champs with their trainer bike or just tune in from their sweaty box fan garage Zwift setup at home like they normally do. I'm not sure which scenario I think is funnier/lamer/more of a harbinger of the apocalypse.

did not have this on my team rumors bingo card

I do love a good Dyad joke

The full title for that vid is "IT'S FINALLY HERE!! THIS BIKE IS INSANE!! CAN'T BELIEVE A PURPOSE BUILT LONG TRAVEL DOWNHILL BIKE IS BETTER AT RIDING DOWNHILL THAN MY TRAIL BIKE BECAUSE THAT'S ALL I'VE BEEN RIDING!! WOW!!"
