@wolftwenty1: randoms like Kolb, Helmstreet, Gwin? What a take. More riders, longer tracks.

2026 Andorra DH World Cup Elite Q2 Qualifying Results

I find it pretty wild that guys that fast don't make it to the finals now. There really should be 10 more in the finals, imo. Kolb, Pontvianne, etc are all capable of a podium.

Two Vermont Builders Handed $35,000 Fine for Unauthorized State Forest Trails

@dv8416: It's wild to see isn't it. Such a so called "protected" spot of land just dozed. Thank god we built the DJs where we did to avoid removal, but I can see that being affected soon too with the changes they are making to the don river. I see you're an OG too, so you'd remember the glory days! VOTLR, Chicken run.

@jkertz: Yup. We were told not to build in Crothers woods, a "protected forest" full of garbage waste that we cleared out and beautified. Years later, the entire forest has been clear-cut to make way for a new subway line bridge. Super sad to see, but it opened my eyes to the reality of how the world operates when it comes to forests. Now I just build doubles and gap jumps on sanctioned trails. Good riders love me, bad riders hate me.

my take aways as a *former* trail builder (if you ride in Southern Ontario, you've ridden trails I built): 1) They use Strava to find your trails. 2) Build in silence. 3) Trail building is becoming an *industry* with intent to remove grassroot efforts.

POC’s New Barocon Carbon DH Helmet Meets US Moto Standards, But It Costs $880

D4 Carbon is 1000g, costs less. Arguably cooler looking.
