ok... so just because its an xc photo that automatically makes it crap does it? its a great photo, granted there are better, but its still pod worthy even if there is no action in it.

i agree with dhabartrider11 about the change up. Its also so true what Worm-Burner is saying about the work on that trail. THat might be some sort of aincent village trail or something to

Everything so far in this comment-tree defines pinkbike, overall:
-People who love biking, and are just great people in general,
-People who disrespect anything other than their specific type of riding
-Immature kids who say things like konadona
-People who whine about the disrespectful and immature

Back on topic: This photo makes me jealous of Rob and Baron
