9/19/2019 2:46am I go through this every Supercross season... On Saturday evening, I stop looking at my phone so I can get home from work, eat dinner, and then start watching the race that is recording.. FB and the internet will still be there a few hours later... But, in today's world, most people want the results RIGHT NOW! Some people don't seem to be happy unless their favorite site has results up before the end of the race...

9/19/2019 2:45am does anyone expect the results of the superbowl to be withheld by espn, nbc, pbs, hbo, nytimes, drudge report, pennysaver and the appalachian gazette until everyone watches the game? fwiw, we don't spoil WC race results in titles or even the subtitles (text that social media picks up and could spoil). we haven't for a while. and re: the winning bike comment below, we wait at least 6-8 hours until after the race to post those. the absurdity of getting riled up over a hardline QUALIFIER spoiler is pretty awesome, IMO.

9/19/2019 2:40am We are a welcoming and understanding portal, that lets the user decide what they want to see. It couldn't be easier to make sure you get to watch the race without spoilers, just don't visit news sites or social media until you've seen it - it's the easiest decision in the world. My point is that it is ultimately up to the users to take advantage of all the tools and technology at their disposal to shape their experience, without resorting to demanding that the whole internet should conform to their particular viewing preferences.

6/24/2019 10:58am So....most of the info in the article is incorrect. I hope whoever wrote it doesnt have anything to do with designing your bikes. The bit about the brake mount rotating to reduce chain tension was particularly bad...

9/18/2018 9:25am 'Democrats, or Republicans' was not mentioned. I hope you do see the relevance of the cost of cycling goods to a cycling site though. News that will most likely affect everyone should just be seen as that, news, not bias. Plus, this article had good arguments for and against, which should be the standard of quality news. Better to be educated than insulated.

Every time Steve's tires left the ground I held my breath. Poor little paper-sidewall tires.

11/22/2015 6:07am This is funny. I'm going to try to keep it going. I started riding mountain bikes in the central Sierras around 1989. After a few years of racing and working in bike shops I decided to go to school and learn how make things. For the last 15 years or so I have been engineering many things, most of them...
