 I would love to see Rachel and Vali battle it out for a full season. It was great seeing Vali finally find her consistency and live up to the potential greatness which we could always see glimpses of. And after her historic run a Hardline, I'm looking forward to what Gracey will do this WC season.

 How about young Island girl Emmy Lan? This two-time UCI EDR U21 World Cup overall winner , DH dabbler, mentor and creator of grassroots events for girls and general gem of a human is making her mark, doing women proud and bringing up the next generation of sister shredders with her along the way.

 HUGE year for the women. I’m excited to see more events and coverage of them. The DH races are great to watch.

 Great video. It's fun to see all the cool stuff women are doing. These are also just cool moments in MTB over the past year. thanks for recognizing Alexandra Houchin's mad ride on the Tour Divide. That's a super fun race to follow. Endurance racing isn't a usual topic on Pink Bike, but I'm here for it. Also with Alicia, I'm down to hear more about her other adventures with paragliding. It's fun to sprinkle in some other outdoor sports that our favorite MTB riders also participate in.

 Not a rider, but a mechanic on Youtube for honorable mention: Callie Waldschmidt. Check out the shack and get some tool advice to boot!

 Love this suggestion! Thank you and shout out Callie!

 Alexandera Houhchin! I'm SUCH a massive fan of this incredible woman. She is just pure, raw power and I love her vulnerability through it all.

 Not really a "moment," but I thought one of the great things of 2023 was getting to see the Juniors racing all season.

The highlight for me was when the young women from New Zealand - Erice Van Leuven, Poppy Lane and Sacha Earnest - swept the podium at the World Championships.

 Erice van Leuven winning world champs as a first year junior was a big one for me as well

 HUGE fan of Erice. Such a threat on any bike.

 The Transition Factory Team for sure. That group of ladies put in a lot of impressive podium appearances. (Yes, I know Tristan was on the team, but injuries kept him out of a lot of the season.)

 I think the audio repeated a couple lines at the end... or I had a stroke.

 Played smoothly to the end for me...or I had a stroke? Confused

 What's the percentage of female vs male (members) on this site? I assume it's gradually increasing, just like the number of female riders in MTB? 30/70? 20/80? Talk to me.
  • 4 1
 The last they reported in 2021, Pinkbike was about 95 percent male. If it increased, I’d be really surprised if the demographic shifted 15-25 percent.

 @TheR: Was that readership or in the comment section? My guess would be readership and the comment section is even more skewed.

 The Tour Divide is for mentalists. Found out about it in a Guy Martin book. This Can to Mex race is off grid and off its tits.

 LAF finishing and hitting the big jumps in her Hardline race run after 2 hideous slams gets my vote.
