Pinkbike Poll: What Features Would You Like To See In a Flat Pedal MTB Shoe?
Got the Rowan Pros and they have been good. Only issue is if you use them as an everyday shoe they get flexy really quick. Hardest part is finding one with a slightly thicker tongue (personal opinion). Nothing better than being able to ride in a pair and then you can go about the daily activities without changing shoes.
They could have a bigger market, never understood why they never brought back the gravels or other pro skate models.

Commencal Signs Pro BMX Racer Sylvain André
@vinay: Cromo has a load of flex on a race bike and similar can be said for Ti mainly around areas that can effect how power is transferred (ie Bottom Bracket). Awesome for those who want to ride them everywhere, but not purely for racing. Alloy is the middle ground as they are cheaper but fatigue over time and begin to flex more but are light and strong. Carbon is just solid, pure transfer of power with no flex yet youll feel everything in feedback.
I race on cromo as i enjoy the feel, but also ride that bike everywhere.

Pinkbike Poll: What's the Longest Ride You've Been On?
The "Melburn Roobaix", where you dont know the path until you get a map on the day, end up riding down a bunch of cobblestone laneways and many on homemade bikes or in outfits. Last few were around 40-50kms and took us around 5 to 6 hours.

Bike Check: Caroline Buchanan's Trek Ticket DJ
@onemanarmy: It did seem like CB was chasing another shot at the Olympics before not being selected.
Having seen her racing CB's skills are incredible, with the practice in adding a bag of tricks will definitely make her one to continue following and watch her chase the riding dream.

@fartymarty: Better not read the whole background of BC for BMX racing then.
Lets just say, there ended up being a Gold Medal out of it

@DGWW: Mike Laird (Lairdframe) does the frames for the Pro Riders with Mongoose. Should have the Mongoose seatstay bridge and so on in there.

@IMeasureStuff: Been to Wangaratta or Bright? Not massive but still good.
As for the Aus one, If i remember right Mt Gambier has put one in next to the BMX track, its set up for such an event and also has the timing loops installed. Thats my guess where its going.
