some wintertime #USDH goodness. fastest time of the day at the 2025 Southwestern Regional Gravity Champs with Connor Clifford and a vlog from Ignite Racing and Fontana #1 with insane winds

Thank you for posting this. Too many people are using a racing rumors thread to talk crap on Kerr. It's also pretty sexist and BS that people are talking crap on Jenna when she works incredibly hard at her craft and has the speed. Can we move on from this please?

PROPER edit... loved it. Both of the Jewett's are fun to watch ride!

Don't fuck around with hard tails, get an Enduro and ride.

For myself: 1) Get coaching sooner 2) Spend more time sessioning and practicing and less time just riding miles of trail. More interesting would be for myself as a parent of a mountain biker (the only thing I'd probably change): 1) Get the kid on a bmx at a racetrack, pumptrack or skatepark ASAP and start them there at an early age before progressing to a mountain bike.

Hold on for the ride! My bike has taken me to some pretty amazing places and there isnt a whole lot I would change

Obviously have down votes. Not condemning either of them. Just the idea of what such a 'slogan' can do. I come here to read rumours and chat bikes, not to chat personal life.

The other site was down for a few days. Folks brought their energy here. Sucks when I see a new page added and none of it is actual race rumors.

Has something saucy come to light, or are we just riding him for the underage/yet she wasn't underage thing? Yes I find it strange! Not really much of a fan of his, but smashing low level comments isn't really team rumours. Always thought vital to be a little more high brow. Look what 'rumours' did to Dapprella. (True or not) nothing yet specified. Fill me in if you know.

Back to rumors please!!

instead of gossiping about some riders relationships here are some actual team news: team 31 (jenny rissved‘s squad) is off ibis cycles.

Probably because the UCI won't drop any more track disciplines to make room for it. Personally, I'm glad for it. DH currently has enough on it's plate without having to cosy up to the IOC.

It matters enough that I wouldn’t buy a Ripmo/Ripley…

To me that Tora getting bike of the day a couple of days ago is a great example of just how subjective a bike's looks are.

Nukeproof posting some pics of Sam Hill riding DH with the comments ‘eyes on the season ahead’

Trying to be as numerical as possible for the men, the GOAT of DH is either Minaar: Most UCI world cup wins ever (might be beaten, Gwin is only 1 away). And, importantly longest, period of winning Vouilloz: Most World Champs wins ever (might never be beaten, even though Bruni is still youngish). However, the question is who is the best mountain biker, not DHer. Slope/rampage being judged sports makes them difficult to compare with racing, let it be known I am a massive Semenuk fan, but he is out of contention. Vouilloz: Most DH World Champs, EWS win (I...

There's clearly two different ways to answer the question: guts and numbers. Choices made by feeling, preference, or guts are always going to be vague, personal, and more interesting to discuss. An Aussie might be more inclined to say Hill over a Brit, who might root for Peaty. But they'd both be wrong based on numbers, which are exact, precise, and unfeeling. So I think (having done absolutely no research at all) the numbers would determine the GOATs to be: DH Male: Nico The Alien, and Winnaar. DH Female: Anne-Caro (the undisputed, no-argument, alpha GOAT of the sport), and Rachel...

With such metric, wasn't Nico Vouilloz much more dominant than Aaron Gwin?

how can someone leave out the alien, nico vouilloz in a goat-debate???!!
