@cro-magnon: PNS is eating their lunch in the roadie/gravel category out here in the Bay Area/California. Since Rapha got bought out by the Walton's (Walmart) PE firm people have just joked it's Walmart kit. We use to joke Rapha was the spendy brand, but not so much these days.

Pinkbike Editors' Favorite Night Riding Lights
100% agree, and adding to your points
- Few if any hikers and horse people
- Really no one else on the trails so go as fast as you want
- Night time so no sunscreen! (huge for gingers like me)
- Better riding temperatures (here in coastal california)

Who Will Win the 2026 DH World Cup Overall Titles at Lake Placid?
@edspratt: at first I thought WBD would reallocate some of the EWS money towards DH/XC events next year in a way that would mean bigger prizes, but realistically they'll prob re-invest it in to production/subsidize venue fees so they can retain some that are on the fence about continuing. Is that what you're hearing?

Please Don't Dumb Down the Trails
sounds like what CCC did on Mt. Tam with Coastal View Trail https://www.trailforks.com/trails/coast-view-trail-45365/
- it wasn't a 'hard' trail, but it had some sections that required some effort
- now it's a sidewalk, and the drainage is built wrong so it'll all go to shit when/if we get a good rainy season
