Wyn gets interviewed on Danny TV, and chats with the winners and grinners from the Leogang DH World Cup. Plus find out who the privateer of the week is!
@Milko3D: ditto! Nina crushed it this week! she seems like such a fun, genuine person and to see her excitement and appreciation for what Wyn is doing is touching. I'm adding to the fund. Keep it going, privateers!
She was looking at Wyn like: Is he totaly drunk, or what? ...i guess, she didn't belive him at all! And that phone-interview with Jo v.K. - KILLER! Best episode i can remember - and consequently with that Stan's bottle! Great job, @wynmasters - huge applause!
This is pretty impressive. By comparison, PulpMX did something similar in Supercross this season and raised about 32k USD over the course of the season to give to a top privateer at the end of the season. The difference was he was raffling off a Yamaha YZ450 to help with fund raising. For the bike community to have raised 12k Euros (last I checked - about 13.5k USD) in three days, is pretty damn impressive. Stoked for Wyn, stoked for the privateers, stoked to be a rider.
@Linkpin: Its not a competition! Every little helps. Also I feel if we were to do it as a percentage of yearly income mine would look MUCH more generous ????
You’re absolutely right and I was only joking - I knew it was wrong but I just couldn’t resist! I donated the same amount as you and am in the same position - I’d love to give more but I’m not able to do so.
Also, you give a shit load more to DH than cash - the joy and insight you bring is priceless.
@ben-cathro: is right it’s not a competition if everyone puts in 5 or 10 it’s still going to keep growing, appreciate every single donation big or small there have been 408 donations so far so really appreciate that!
@Session603: Yep, fair - I have been a c*nt this time. It wasn't intentional but I can see now how my post could be taken.
For the record, I think Ben provides amazing value to mountain biking and Wyn's fund is an incredible idea that has rightfully taken off and one I hope continues.
And everyone should give what they can, but only what they can.
@Linkpin: oh buddy, nothing but love to you and Cathro. No disrespect intended. I was just looking for a chance to poke at Ben about those awful hats he wears. I tried to convey my lack of seriousness by insulting myself more than you or Ben, but if it came off as anything remotely serious then I owe both of you an apology.
@Linkpin: it was good banter you wanker! It would have been better if he just replied "f*ck off!" Instead of explaining. That's the internet for you. Maybe in the future these threads will be live video feeds and then people won't get hurt so easily!
@Cammyd14: Billy Connolly said that his father saw a penny on the street once and as he reached down to grab it he was hit in the back of his head. The penny wasn't there after he woke up
Johannes Von Klebelsberg !!!! Jeans with his phone in his pocket on his race run !!!! Just loving this, what a sport, what a great crowd of like minded people, and big props to Wyn for instigating the privateer prize, onward to the EWS....
Like RedRedRe said, she is already hooked up with Juliana/ Santa Cruz. She's on the team issue She10, which has the sickest paint job. Saw one for one of the local Juliana riders and it's rad! That being said, it would be sick if she got factory support/ pay cheques if she's not already.
The best idea in a long time, giving back to the best sport in the world!!!!!!
keep doing it Wyn, that says alot about the quality of people you and every one that gives are.
Felicidades, saludos de Mexico.
When a sport has absolutely no drama off of the playing field, and everyone wants the best for eachother, then you know that what goes on on the playing field would kill any normal person.
The kids these days have a lot worse influences that "bad" words. Also, should we ban exposure to drinking too? Red bull is pretty bad shit for kids too. No nanny state please!
dudes...best comment attidude since a very long time! no hate, internet engineering and complaints. Cheers...Thx to Wyn and all the donators - great idea.
