Pinkbike Poll: Electronic Components
I could see benefits of integrating the settings of different components with electronics. But I certainly don't want to have to remember to charge a battery to ride my bike. I already forget to charge my lights for night rides. My phone, mp3 player and camera are always running out of juice when I need them, so electronics on bikes is not for me.

Oregon Enduro Series Announces New Camas WA Venue and Return of Ashland Super D
Nice. I like the superD format better. Might actually participate in that race. It is kinda strange that a Washington race is in the Oregon series, not that I care. Also seems like Oakridge should be in the series.

Riding RockShox's New 2014 Pike - First Look
First off I'm not a kid. 2nd I am pretty much the target market for this type of fork. I ride xc fairly aggressively. 3rd my wheels are only 6 months old and have a 20mm axle. Yes I could convert my hub but the only point of going to a 15mm axle is to save a little weight in the bearings, the convertion doesn't do that. The reason to buy a fork would be to upgrade. They are trying to sell this fork on the basis that stiffer is better, marketing is working on me. 15 mm is theoretically flexier, spacing being part of this. The reason for tapered headtubes and 35mm stancions is to increase stiffness. 15mm makes sense as an upgrade over qr but is a downgrade for a burly am fork.

Riding RockShox's New 2014 Pike - First Look
Yep arrogant. Look at all the comments. I am a hater and I hate bullsh$t. If I was a weight weeny I would be down for a 15 mil axle on an xc bike. My revelation even has a 20mm axle. Let's see theoretically tapered headtube = stiffer, 35mm = stiffer, 15mm = flexier. Just my 2 cents, don't take it to seriously. And yes I'm sure people will buy it, cool looking fork.

You really think it's going to be much stiffer? My revelation came with a 20mm axle and seems a tad stiffer than the fox 34s with the 15mm axle. Or maybe it's all in my head.

Hmmm. 15mm axle seems a little weaksauce for this type of fork. If I was a fork manufacturer I would do a little market research and see what people want.

Fox World Headquarters Grand Opening
Looks cool for a metro Californian night club. They need to put some dirt in there. I think they are confused on what industry they are in.

Doping: Crime and Punishment?
Well I think I might race this year. I am out of shape so I have been having a hard time deciding which drug to take. What do you guys think? I hear meth does good things.

The Argument For Short Travel Bikes - Opinion
After reading this article I've decided that I'm going fully rigid, single speed and brakeless.
