Video: The Aftermath of Bentonville's Tornado
@the-one1: I live here & the bike scene in this area is amazing but even I think "The Mountain Capital of the World" is pushing it. lol The slogan does have the intended effect though. :)

The Pinkbike Podcast: Why Did Our Bikes Get So Big?
I hate how huge the modern bikes are. It feels like you are getting "in" them not "on" them. I will never buy one.

@garrettstories: @garrettstories: I have lived in NWA my whole life & started biking in the late 80's when Devils Den State Park was pretty much the only place to ride other than a few private trails. Garrett you are absolutely right in that it was the locals that got the ball rolling. Also anyone that thinks there was/is no red tape is just delusional. lol

Video: Official Highlights from the Fort William DH World Cup 2024
I already had HBO MAX so I watched the finals. I have to admit the broadcast was better overall than last season.
I still think the camera placement & choices of when to show the different camera angles is still subpar.
Having Gwin & Tahnee there def helped but even if they had not been there the normal commentator was much better than Cedric. I like Cedric but when he gets excited you can't understand anything he is saying.
Not even close to Red Bull but better. If I had not already had MAX I still would not pay for this separately.

How Do Pros & Fans Feel About Warner Bros. Discovery’s Organization & Coverage of World Cup Racing in 2024?
International Mountain Bike is all but dead. The smell of death is already on it. Killed by short sighted idiots.

5 Key Stats From Downhill Racers in the Pinkbike State of the Sport Survey 2024
Discovery is so fucking greedy & clueless. Them & the UCI have pretty much destroyed every thing I cared about in DH racing. I feel so sorry for the racers but I will never pay for that crap again.

5 Key Stats From Women in the Pinkbike State of the Sport Survey 2024
I would think it's because there are usually hundreds of men entered in a World cup race paying entry fees & only a fraction of that number in the women's races.

[Updated with Company Statement] Orange Bikes Intends to Appoint Administrator
I'm old now so I have seen biking go through all kinds of ups & downs.
I've seen bike & component designs fail only to turn up again a few years later touted as new all over again.
IMHO this current situation has been brought mostly by greed & shortsightedness.
