I think the fact that no one seems to get a clean run down that track adds to the unpredictable nature of races at snowshoe. As a mortal is reminds me why I don’t like going down lower hair ball.

What ever you need les gets.

Amazing race run. I’m sitting here three years after dislocating my foot on the bike and I still don’t walk without pain. She is tough as nails to have done this. Congratulations!

Thanks for the interview Vernon, and Dave. For all the complaining about IMBA I don't see another organization out there on a national level that can offer the support that they do to lobby local and federal governments for access. For that reason alone they will continue to have my support. My local club is an affiliate but I can say there has been concerns due to the changes in regional support after the Subaru sponsorship loss. I hear some local clubs have dropped their IMBA affiliation as a response. Hopefully we can have future articles on how IMBA going to function going forward. Pulling for Dave to have a successful roll in pulling IMBA through this time.

@SnowshoeRider4Life: Let me introduce you to your local tail club. http://www.pocahontastrails.com You should get to know. They are affiliated with IMBA and they make great technical trail. For all of the internet heroes out there, there is one organization working on a national level for mountain bike trail access. IMBA is never going to please everyone, but there are 2 separate issues here: 1. Trail and Land Access. I'm curious where do the anti IMBA bikers send their money to help tail access in this country? STC? OK if you only care about wilderness access. 2. Trail building. Pink Bikers favorite area to gripe about in-between A-Line sessions. No offense but if there was a shortage of gnar everywhere the lines for the Garbo zone would be the same as the lower mountain. Hint, they aint. Hell, Snowshoe's most popular trail is probably Skyline, a flow tail. Does the addition of Skyline ruin the bike park, no. There is still plenty of technical trial, and Skyline opens up riding the park to a lot of people that may not otherwise try.

@slayersxc17: Maybe no. https://www.bikereg.com/Confirmed/32985

Is he smelling what Windrock is cooking next week?

Surprised to see Sik Mik riding in the US when it is summer in his home country. That says good things about what is going on at Windrock.
