Underexposed: How Klamath Falls Built an Oregon Riding Destination
I stopped there for a night in 2023 while driving from Tahoe back to Canada. I found a few videos hyping the place so decided to check it out. Spence lived up to the praise. Hooligan was a really fun flow trail, while Nighthawk was a real fun challenge. Also rode Chinquapin before heading north again. Rye Spur nearby was also a great ride with amazing views from the top.

Must Watch: Brage Vestavik’s BC Dream Line in 'Trolldom'
This wasn't in a national park, but tou do need a permit to make a commercial film on public land in B.C.: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/crown-land-water/crown-land/crown-land-uses/commercial-uses/film#Fees
You also need a permit to cut down trees over a certain size. It looks like there's enough wood on the ground in that area that they wouldn't have had to cut anything down to build those features.

Emily Batty Announces Retirement from Professional Racing
@AngryPirate: Catharine Pendrel had a kid at the age of 40 and raced in the Tokyo Olympics seven months later, so it probably isn't that.

Statement from Tyax Adventures on Float Plane Accident in South Chilcotin Mountains
"Last year, there was a fatal float plane crash where two people died when a Cessna 180H crashed into Tyaughton Lake. That flight was not operated by Tyax Adventures."
This links to a story from 2018. You should correct that.

6 Things We Learned from the Tokyo Olympics
Regarding #2: Catharine Pendrel went into London 2012 leading the World Cup standings and was a favourite to win and even was subject of a campaign to be Canada's flag bearer at the opening ceremonies. She finished 10th. Four years later, she wasn't expected to podium, but pulled off a bronze despite crashing very early in the race and having to pass lots of riders along the way.

There's no video of this race, so it's not like you can watch it.

Tom Pidcock: "I Didn't Feel Good but Everyone Just Told Me No One Will Feel Good"
This race is once every four years and is the only time you'll get national media attention for mountain biking. It's a huge showcase for athletes in fringe sports and success at the Olympics can mean some good profile and endorsement deals.
