Is tier 2 exclusive to riders who have been on the grassroots program before? I have a friend who moved from Russia to Canada so he could pursue downhill as a career. Hes won several races in Expert at bromont and all by a significant margin (3-4 seconds each). He plans on not only racing WC but winning it soon and his work ethic through training and riding is absolutely insane. He needs support to go to his races. Anything helps

Godziek, Soderstrom, Rogatkin, Pilgrim, Testa. Top 5 in that order

To be honest I love the sport of mountain-biking and it is by far my deepest passion, however I am getting so frustrated by how the entire market for completes, forks, frames, components, etc. is priced. Maybe its just me being ignorant to the process of how things are built but i cannot find it justifiable that a fork should cost $1500 (and plenty cost even more). For many people (including myself) the price of the sport can be a major financial burden. I'm trying to balance affording money to go to university and biking as much as I can and it is very difficult. I am completely willing to spend several thousand dollars to buy a new DH rig but I can't help but to think the only reason I would is because the market for theses bikes is so overpriced that its forcing people to dive way too far into their pockets, and giving them no choice but to spend ridiculous amounts of money. When you spend $800 on a fork that originally costs $1200 it isnt exactly "saving". Again maybe this is just me being a little unreasonable but id like to hear what anyone else thinks

Why was this temporary? Place looked unreal

Been riding there every week since it opened. Such an amazing facility!!!

Look at Rogatkin... that double whip was oppo!!
