REPLAY: Val di Sole World Cup 2013
The live stream is mostly unwatchable for me. I think the issues are more with their streaming media provider than the player. I don't think they have enough bandwidth to handle the traffic.

Fort William Pit Walk - Day 1
Turner makes excellent bikes but they are more of a boutique brand (nothing low-end). I would guess their budget isn't big enough to be the title sponsor/supplier of a DH World Cup team.

Pinkbike Poll: Have Bikes Become Too Complicated?
Unfortunately, wages in the US have remained flat with the cost of living rising (for most Americans).

Pinkbike Poll: Have Bikes Become Too Complicated?
I don't disagree that the cost of the sport is a high barrier to entry or that a lot of product out there is insanely overpriced, but the bigger factor is that wages stagnated a long time ago compared to inflation. Your buying power is far more diminished these days and your disposable income is much smaller than it should be.

Video: The Trek Team Interview - Sea Otter 2013
Clips = toe clips, SPDs = clipless, flats = flats...for semantics. Now get off my lawn.

Fox Racing Shox Changes Its Tune: CTD Gets More Compression Damping and a Progressive Spring Rate
Regarding the Float forks, can we at least get some more detailed information on what numbers are going into "stronger tunes" compared to last year's models. I'm assuming they are just adjusting oil levels, PSI, etc. and it would be nice to know what the new baseline recommendations are now.

Win a Course Walk With Sam Hill at Sea Otter
A course walk? Sounds like an awkward first date. Can we at least keep it classy and have dinner and drinks first?

Pinkbike Poll - Should the UCI Restrict DH Racing to 26-Inch Wheels?
They're not: "Of course, this is all speculative, because as far as we know, the UCI is not considering a wheel-ban at this time."
