Tech Randoms: Lenzerheide DH World Cup 2026
@TommyNunchuck: It sticks so much better than the actual rim tape too. The sticky residue after a summer of riding can be a pain in the butt but these teams are putting on new rims so often I doubt they care anyways.

Review: The EXT Vaia USD Fork is Extra Adjustable, But Lacks Consistency
We can engineer a fork but we cant come up with a fender that mounts or is part of the lower stanchion guards. That fender looks ridiculous.

After the Storm: A Year Since Helene
We are about an hour from Asheville, I have a little sliver of land we camp and stuff on in East Tennessee and the first time we went back up there was mind blowing.
When you see the current water height and then look up to how high the the land is scarred from the debris flow its insane, every single little creek and river is 4 times as wide and substantially shallower.

North Shore Racks Releases the New NSR4 Gradus Hitch Rack
@thomasthebuilder: No chance a bike rack holding a bike by the tires puts anymore stress on the fork and headset with only the bikes weight than riding 20 feet on a trail with your weight on the bike.

Loris Vergier Sidelined with Broken Shoulder Blade After Team Camp Crash
Also the CT scan of mine was pretty gnarly looking displaced and a chunk broken off but no surgery and it was all healed in 8 weeks.

Loris Vergier Sidelined with Broken Shoulder Blade After Team Camp Crash
I broke my scapula in half last year its really painful and felt like my arm was cut off, I was in a sling for 4 weeks then started working on range of motion then some stuff to gain some strength at home and was riding at 8 weeks with almost no pain and haven't really thought about it since. Probably the easiest injury I've had.
Its when you break your scapula at the ball where your shoulder connects that it becomes a bigger issue and needing surgery, the wing part of your scapula is only there to protect your internal organs.
