yes. YouTube is the real Death Star — bigger reach than Netflix, free, and dominates across all age groups. It’s not just creators anymore, it’s pro content, global scale, and the algorithm is unmatched. It is the #1 streaming platform, hands down.

Its very rare that you say something I agree with, but in this case I really do… loris came down with rain and a dusty track, those final 3 guys had it perfect. Put and asterisk next to this one for Jackson.

As a former brand and product manager for a helmet brand, I had a coworker show me their new Speedframe pro a few weeks ago and what a friggin nice lid. Historically Fox lids did not fit my head perfectly, but this one fit me quite well and the attention to detail was pretty great. Nice work to the Fox crew on this helmet and congrats on the VT test score as well.

This strikes me as excessive. Sag is a relative measurement anyway, there’s very little value in actually knowing the number. I guess you can get a little more precision out of it, and it could be cool to have as a team or a shop, but it’s pretty expensive for an individual

tried using chatGPT with a ton of quality prompts, my years of expertise to tune me up a winning Vital Fantasy team....I got worked, 312th or some crap, my missus smoked me, shes 70th and wont hear the end of it. I last minute traded in bruni to buy up some mid packers-what a bust.

HH totally could’ve come to a stop there and made a face like OJ trying on that glove. “Ooopsie, this doesn’t work for me, gimme another go!” Instead she yelled out at the dipshit and used high level bike skills to avoid him. To each their own. I’d’ve clamped the brakes and hopped off my bike then and there, forced the issue. Conditions were so shitty though…maybe not. RicMc should’ve asked the team manager he was sharing a booth with if he would’ve put up a protest for one of his riders in that situation. Would be interesting to hear...

To me the worst thing about this is he appeared to be wearing a lanyard, so probably not just a random fan.

I lightly tried to find past points breakdowns, past winners, their secret sauce, etc... as I was loading every ounce of info into chatGPT to have it make all the picks, moneyball style, but couldn't find the past data-so did the best I could. Kinda funny with an excercise like this when you know the sport pretty damn well, better...

Spomer, wondering if you have a backlog? Nobody managed to curate a 'perfect' team last year right? After the event a perfect team was made up with the data to show us I believe? And I don't recall anyone even coming very close really. Would love to see like... Who had the smallest margin between their team and the perfect one Smile

Trump is causing termoil to the markets. His background friends/backers/string pullers gain from this and make out like bandits while the rest of the population watches along in disbelief that this is happening.

It was the one shot I forgot to get, and I think that's the universe telling me not to give in to the clickbait.

Now take a picture of you standing on the derailleur cage haha. Looking forward to the full review, I want to see if there is any reason to buy this over a Shimano SLX or XT drivetrain.
