Wyn too, I'm stoked. No reason to complain about "only" 7 WC races when we also have champs, decent Crankworx DH coverage, and then some EWS coverage as well.

And the Irish enduro. He is just afraid of the noise the Irish fans would make for such a loose rider

I get what you're saying, but don't be fooled, they both want to win very badly.

He better ask for a raise for doing double jobs, else Norco will enlist him for XCO.

I think he'll be an overall contender in years to come. Always seems to have limitless energy in DH runs.

He has already shown us how fit he is, has he not? Didn't he podium in some Enduro races already?

Guy is fun to watch. I'm all for it.

I raced Mega in 2007 and Blenki raced it on his DH bike and ended up 7th. Everyone thought it was nuts somebody could do so well on a dual crown big rig. On some of the uphill sections he would just run with his bike.

Blenki is one damn fine looking man. And I should know, I'm fine looking too.

Bring on the Blenki Magic. The dude pedals the shit out of everything. Hope he kills it this year.

This is probably why I've seen him out pounding out the Rotorua trails on his Enduro bike.

Hands down the most entertaining rider on his bike. And he's racing EVERYTHING for 2016. Brilliant!

dancingwhale (Jan 11, 2016 at 17:37)

Goddamn, that's a lot of race stress and exerted energy to be competing at top levels in two disciplines at the same time. Better be paying him well, Norco! Also please don't burn him out

I want the 2008 Yeti squad back - Leov, Graves, Blenki, Gwin... Quite a stable at that time, but they didn't know it yet. Or, maybe they did!

@ithomas wrong. Everyone knows he's riding for Whiteley again so he'll be on the ultra secret honda rn-01 G-cross. Mostly because he is tired of breaking chains and the gearbox is all the rage.
