iceman2058 Liked a forum topic Are the Junior DH Racers Getting Faster?

Every time there's a fast crop of Junior DH racers we get excited, but sometimes it's easy to get carried away and forget to put things in context. To dig a little deeper into this question, we ran some numbers to see how the juniors have stacked up against the elites since 2017, and if there is some kind of trend to be found in this data. Our main measurement here is how much faster the elites went as a percentage of the junior winning time, and then we tracked that metric over time to see what's going on. Here...

8/27/2023 11:39am Having seen a lot of peculiar data visualizations in mtb media recently, it's refreshing to see someone present a clear question, use a data set that can shed some light on it, and pick one visualization that reasonably well supports the discussion they're trying to have

I found this strangely relatable for mountain bike content. More than anything it comes across like a genuine attempt to help less experienced riders make a few simple decisions and arrive at a better outcome for themselves. So it came across to me a lot like the 5-10 minute demonstrations I do to introduce students to new lab equipment, or to ask them to think about more familiar equipment in a new way. I don't know if it gets engagement or changes people's behavior or moves product better or worse than all the other mtb marketing using tropes from beer...

"Acoustic Bikes"? Hard nope there. Can we all just agree that the nomenclature for a normal fully mechanical non-motor assisted bike is a bike and a e-bike is an e-bike.

This has nothing to do with politics but you are barely literate and have little understanding of context, manners, or empathy. It is literally impossible to have a conversation with someone like yourself. So please don’t go telling others how they live under a rock. everybody just do yourself a favor and don’t feed the troll. I should’ve just not said anything about waki and started this mess. My bad! 😬

What if some of this is fake hysteria to drive sales, feed the beast, keep the fire on, etc etc etc? Not saying supply/demand issues are not real, but, I feel like one persons 250 lead time becomes 300, then 400, etc....just in rumor mill. Also, the forecasting/demand planning people in manufacturing are using the last 12 months as the barometer when we have to expect demand to cool down sooner than later?
