Amanda Batty blocks anyone who disagrees with her in the slightest and bullies other female riders that post anything she considers exploitative. I got blocked for sticking up for another rider she was shaming. She's not interested in discussion. Yep, our sport needs to be inclusive for women and people from more diverse backgrounds. I don't think her approach is helping. Anyways, back to team rumours.

Team rumors forum this year is a bigger disappointment than the anti-vaxers keeping this pandemic trucking right along. Come on Vital, make some burner accounts and spill the beans for us already....there's barely 2 weeks left on some of these contracts. This fire needs some fuel!!!!

I’m beginning to think that having a day scheduled for a rain delay would make a lot of sense. With natural, fresh cut tracks being preferred by the riders, but not faring well in the wet and not presenting fair racing in changing conditions, it seems to make sense that allowing a storm to pass before racing would make sense...

Even if the purses were much bigger, only a handful of riders would actually be winning them, that doesn't help the sport in any way, we need more of the top 40 getting a basic salary and travel costs and insurance paid. Races that are not UCI WC or EWS need to attract big names to their events to boost overall numbers, thus better prize purses. EWS is going to get all the big names by being the premier championship, and Pros placing well will get payouts from their teams in most cases (from what I know of some contracts)...

It almost seems like workers labor is undervalued by the people running the companies they work for. Like workers aren’t receiving a fair share of the value they generate for their firms. I’m just spitballing here.

It's a crazy world in which 1,350-dollar wheels are considered "for everyone".... Not to mention that I do not understand, with all of the progress made in rim shape and profile by other carbon rim manufacturers, why Specialized would go for such a traditional profile.

It will probably be easiest to sell your frame with the shock and to buy a frame with a shock, so I wouldn’t stress keeping the same shock. It is possible to find a frame with all of the same parts, but you’ll probably need to look for a frame from the same era so that you can keep your...

Scotland is the most cautious in their approach to the pandemic in terms of the four nations, its not surprising they are still cautious about this! You also have to understand that the hospitals in the highlands are small and serve a huge area. You can't have a massive influx of people and expect their hospitals to cope with both injuries from the WC as well as the increase number of infections. Vaccine rollout is all well and good, but there are still many unknowns about the effectiveness of vaccine cover from mutated forms of the virus, especially from athletes/spectators...

I wouldn't be surprised if he was in fact going to be doing some race media for PB -- it would be a gas having two Masters conducting goofy interviews in the pits (and might be funny jab at Wyn after he took WynTV from PB to GT). But I wouldn't believe that he's stepping back from racing at a...
