If you have never seen this race run, you know nothing about WC-DH and why Sam Hill is the best ever...
Completely explodes in a corner and still gets 3rd at World Chanps.

Listen to the 2nd announcer: " Any of you kids thinking about getting clipped in , dont bother!!!"
No one rides pinned foot out like Sam.

Moving to Vernon in August and exited to ride new (to me) trails. Have some history building and maintaining trails, so I'm happy to help out in that department. I am happily retired and have nothing but time.

Never said Sam is the best right now, just best ever... Sam is shaping up to be leading the EWS points overall after this weekend, there isn't one other rider in history to win multiple worlds, uci overalls in DH and a EWS Enduro overall... Sam will go down as the Greatest of All Time.

Just wait till gwin, or the entire Atherton family, get too soft for DH.

Who you like Craw? Peatty? Washed - has been that never was... Cedric: Is sweet.

Jesus Juice Gwinn on a mail order bike?

My close 2nd is Hart Attack just because he is so damned handsome.

I don't get the trail app... Why not just use TrailForks and donate the $10 (100%) to NOCS? What % do you give to NOCS? How is your app better than TF?

I don't think he was pushing the trailmapps app, but giving a shout out for NOCS. Most people just use trailforks since it is free. I considered that app before trailforks until I learned that it is $10 per riding area. I doubt anytime uses the trailmapps app anymore.

^^^This, just showing him a link to our bike club. Didn't even mention the trailgouge app? Guy said he was into building and maintaining, club is a good resource to get into the local scene and meet other riders.

When you coming out next Vernon way J-Dubz? ... Got the DH bike tweaked, and we up to washed up old guy speed, let's play. Nobles on DH bikes would be fun now, it's getting blown out, loose, bumpy très DH-able.

The app rolled out just before trail forks was a thing. So they seem to have obliged the old app guy by keeping him around.
