We shared a set of 10 bikes from Freeride Fiesta last week, and we're back with another 10. Riders took to the course on a wide range of bikes, from traditional downhill bikes to all variations of freeride-slope-enduro-whatever. Some spec'd relatively short travel bikes like the Yeti SB165 with dual crown forks, while others did the opposite - take their downhill bikes and lighten them up in whatever ways they could. (More on that in an upcoming bike check.) Let's have a look.

 Lol. Boobs Rule headset cap and a dick valve cap.

If women wanna take their place in freeride they need to start runnin awkwardly sexual accessories on their bikes. Where all the 'big and veiny dicks only' headset caps??

 @mi-bike: meeting him in real life, its totally him. pretty sure he was hotboxing his Nissan xterra too.

 @mm732: It's not a misogyny thing it's a maturity thing.

But I'm glad that's where your mind went first.

Now excuse me while I do a fat bong rip on my social media and fuggin SEND IIIT

 Boobs are simply one thing on a very very long list that women generally do better than men.

 Here you go : bentleycomponents.co.uk/shop/p/the-ultimatetop-cap-brass-copy-8f7zd-dxkcc-rf65f
I believe they have a few other options but those are the only ones in stock.

 Pfft the cool chicks are just as hilarious to be around as the guys. It’s a bunch of freeride mtb riders. They are all slightly off kilter one and all.

 And if anyone is curious here is a link to the valve caps themselves: tirecockz.com/collections/frontpage/products/tirecockz-penis-valve-cap-cover
Apparently 10% of profits go to testicular cancer research.

 @enduroNZ: I've currently got a dick valve cap on my motorcycle.... cousin's retaliation from years of me drawing penises on his motorcycles, cars, trucks etc.... gotta be a good sport and rock the cap.

 @LordPader: yes and no, for me it depends on the following factors (in order of importance): composition, shape, size.

 @enduroNZ: it is creepy and kid or not, its things like this that make many women—mountain biking or not—super uncomfortable. It's a shame @pinkbike felt it worth to promote (yes I do realize the article was written by @alicialeggett). And we wonder why there aren't more women in mountain biking.

 @owlsmyles: Some sports will alway be male driven testosterone filled boy's clubs. The PC crowd usually avoid these groups, and that's OK. Maybe you should too?

 @Bushmaster123: oh cute! No, I'm just the father of a girl who likes to ride her bike in the woods like the rest of us and shouldn't feel intimidated or weirded out simply because she's a girl and sports a different anatomy than the troglodytes of the world like yourself.
