Video: We Knew It Was Coming But It Was Still Shocking | Inside The Tape 2026 Les Gets DH World Cup
Yeahhhhhh, we always end up filming out of order so I can get my "Inside The Tape" shed script uploading to Innes before I film and edit the preview. Always catches me out.
Today I recorded 2 segments for "Story Of The Race" with the mic turned off... I like to think the mistakes are easter eggs for the viewers to spot haha.

Video: Finn Iles Is Out But Ronan Dunne Is Back | Up to Speed Les Gets 2026
That would make the fantasy league even more interesting. I'm sure Ed would love to make it even harder to manage the back end, I'll ask him. :'D

High Bars vs Low Bars: Which Setup Wins World Cup DH Races?
@tb927: I've been swapping between 50mm and 80mm Deity Highside bars. I raced my last enduro event with the 80's on an XL Megatower. Sometimes feels like I've got to really stand up to get on top of them on mellow gradient but they feel amazing on anything steep and tech. Does make me want to go XXL again on the frame though,

Video: Where Did That Result Come From? | Inside The Tape 2026 La Thuile DH World Cup
Gahhhh! I knew I woke up in a cold sweat for a reason. You're correct. I write the script for that section as the results roll in and apparently I'm unable to remember how many qualify. Sorry to Jonty, I've removed that segment from the youtube vid and I'll get the PB Editors to add a correction to the post above. Thanks for pointing it out.

Asking World Cup Mechanics the Important Questions In La Thuile
That's an interesting one. We'll maybe save that topic for world champs as the mechanics tend to go a little extra at those events.
