Take notice Big Mountain Enduro. This is the way you do a race report. Badass pictures (of all categories, not just the pros) with captions.

Year of the Rat!

I love it when intolerant douchebags out themselves, lol!

At least there are people still rocking Zee, despite the current transmission blitz!

Thanks for the scrollable format sspomer, much nicer on mobile than the slideshows.

Sad that our DH national championships are going to be held on a <700ft vertical track that isn't lift serviced and is a 2hr drive from a major airport. Nothing against Rock Creek, it's just sad state of affairs when none of the western ski resort/bike parks have interest or willingness to put on a national championship race. Blame is on USAC for not paying good venues to put on national champs.

Old does not mean obsolete 😆

Man made the coolest international race series there was. Had photographers and pros jumping there to work/ride for free cause it was exciting. then he ruined that series making it “commercial” and ruined interest in covering and watching it. Nobody wants to watch pros race a local enduro race the whole draw was the new locations, epic days, and unreal stage lengths. now he’s ruining dh selling out the same way. he literally states in his podcast the tracks are too long to broadcast a full run which is exactly what he is promising fans by this discovery switch. Literally...

My favorite race ever was at the Norba National in Crystal Mountain, Washingtonian 2000. I road tripped it in a loop with the Park City National. The first thousand feet of elevation drop was a Freeride zone. You just left the start and made your way through a gate way down there before the taped course started. A fast line burned in pretty quick. The track was pretty duffy and by the bottom there were BB deep ruts with pedal ruts in the turns. It took two chair lifts to get to the top, so you could practice whichever zone...

I'm an old guy that wants to play! 2004 Sea Otter. Too Tech for it's Time! And.....the palatial 630sqft OG PUSH Industries facility in Irvine where we built them while be taunted by Sven. Oh, those were the days!

Mt Snow NORBA National 1998. Best DH course I've ever ridden to this date. Forest Service shut it down after this year. 3 lines wide through the woods. Worst drought they'd have in decades so deep loam. Snapped chain on the 2nd grass straight under the lift with a rag doll. Was so broke I stuffed my chain in my Intense Grassroots Team Issue XC jersey pocket & kept going. Assumed it was over but like everyone else, passed 4 or 5 guys. Big giant 44 tooth. 4" White Bros DH 110 fork w/ bent stanchions and motor oil from...

My old 1997 Barracuda XXXC, I bought this new when I was 16, Mowed lawns for an eternity to afford it. There was no Cuda distro in Aus back then so I had to fax my order in to Barracuda directly and wire transfer money lol. Very daunting to do with your life savings. I did everything on that bike, raced XC, Dual Slalom, State DH Rounds etc. The suspension design was a URT which works the exact opposite of bikes now (it was plush seated and firmed up standing) but it didn't matter one bit to me back then...
