Orange Bikes' Michael Bonney Seriously Injured in Road Crash
its because the speeds on road bikes are WAY higher than on MTBs, plus tarmac is a lot harder than a nice comfy bush.
Healin vibes buddy!!!

Analysis: Enduro World Series Rules and Regulations
i one day of practice you cant hope to learn all 20+ mins of riding off by heart the way you do with a DH race, all it will do is allow people to scope the terrain and learn where the particularly techy spots are........it will also allow you to figure how to pace yourself in each stage. but you wont learn every corner in one day.

Zen Mountain Biking: Improving Your Riding 100% in 30 Days
no. some people jump on a bike and are automatically fast. I know a good few lads who have put in crazy hours over the last 4/5/6 years, and they still dont qualify for finals at a world cup. the difference between them and the top guys is talent. i think most people who work hard (properly hard) can become very fast, but regardless of how much practice they put in, they will never be world class, that last little bit of speed takes natural ability.

Doping: Crime and Punishment?
Of course it is going to happen to MTB, and in reality, it probably already is happening all over the shop. the reality is that humans are greedy for money/fame/notoriety etc.....this greed will inevitably drive people to cheat any way they think they might get away with it. unfortunately, that is the price of our sporting "growing up.
