Appears to be some sort of belted purse.

First round of the ewsdr or whatever they are callling it this year next weekend and the course map has been released. Around 100km and 3100m of climbing over 2 days so looks like they are going back to bigger days out again.

Having a surname beginning with H seems to be an advantage.

yeah, nah. bikeinsights is much better for these typ of comparisons.

DIRTBAG Factory Racing is a step back to our roots, when grassroots racing helped garner and build the mountain bike community we know and love. With world cup level racing in its current state, we are taking this moment to dive back into what we think racing is all about, riding and competing at venues that foster friendly competition for the shared love of riding bikes. These athletes are all passionate individuals that will be competing around North America and providing a rad experience out of the Transition tent and carrying the TR torch. Whether they are pushing for the...

If they're a negotiation tool at all, they don't come from a place of good faith. But that's par for the course. Pun not intended. The USA will always have a lopsided trade balance. It's the biggest consumer market in the world. In the case of China and the USA, think about how many things each produces that the other doesn't (Edit: this lost a bit of its meaning while I was editing it. Also think about how many things each produces that the other wants, but can't/won't/doesn't produce itself economically). But I suppose one way to reduce an import...

Newsflash: not everyone can afford/needs kashima and 6377364 knobs in their suspension.

You are describing how a strike works. When workers go on strike they don’t get paid. They accept short term risk and hardship for long term gains.

Just to add some fuel to the fire, it's long been my opinion that nobody should feel entitled to make a living from sport. If you happen to be very good at a sport that also happens to be very popular, you stand to make a lot of money, and bully for you! But that's not a right. If, however, you're very good at an unpopular sport, just enjoy being good at something. If the sport is also dangerous, you also have a risk/reward equation to balance in your head before competing. But nobody's forcing you to take those risks.

The quote on that last pic 🤮 "more fun" gtfo "sustainable future" gtfo Me-only-bikes are eleventy-billion times more sustainable than eeebs. Focus on that.

Shout out big privilege, he's a good dude. Always up at mountain creek, just a normal dude that likes riding bikes (with a rap career). I love that it he brings representation for a minority in our sport.

I can with 100% certainty say you're incorrect. "We're all better for it." is immeasurably short-sighted. I only typed that thing up because I didn't want the poster to feel like I was making a judgement on him (or anyone else). It costs me nothing to make sure the people who haven't earned any sort of negativity from me don't perceive any negativity from me towards them. For many of us life is hard. We're all humans and we all feel things differently based on what our hour/day/week/month/year has been like. I don't need to contribute negativity into anyone's life...

woosh
