Congrats and thank you Neko! Very impressed-with / grateful-for all you've been able to accomplish for the sport, especially on the East Coast.

Video: The Biggest Crashes from the 2023 DH World Cup Season

The sport is very dangerous, the most skilled riders in the world are sending it at their highest level. IMO, Semi's add a huge amount of additional danger and yet degrade the end spectator product. So to the people with the power, "Let's be done with these semi's, please!!"

Field Test Review: 2023 Nukeproof Giga 297 - Is Parkduro a Thing?

@FMHUM: Not concerned about weight or fancy suspension/group sets. Just something that descends well and can take the hits.

Field Test Review: 2023 Nukeproof Giga 297 - Is Parkduro a Thing?

Is just me or is anyone else averse to this $7k pricing? Not just this model/bike company. Are there any $2500-$3000 options that can take a pounding and don't suck?

Thank you, I didn't know. So ESO/Discovery is to blame.

UCI Announces 2024 World Cup Calendar

The knowledgeable, super hype US DH crowds that already fly in/rent cars to get to Snowshoe will now have to get passports. I wonder how the bike companies that sell into the US market feel about this? Maybe it doesn't mater, who knows.... Feels like the UCI is holding DH hostage and shrinking it instead of growing it.

[UPDATED] Elite Finals Results & Overall Standings from the Lenzerheide DH World Cup 2023

@Fishoholics: Aside from not having Rob's fantastic verbal delivery there were even bigger mistakes: They didn't closely follow and react to the racing action at each split the way Rob and Co did. They are talking about Gwin while Dakota is almost 2 seconds in the green, etc... Its clear that Cedric is knowledgeable but he struggles with English which is sub-optimal for a commentator. Lots of room to improve.

Kyle Strait Signs With Vitus

I'm a fan of the value in the VITUS offerings. They have been great bikes for me. Just bought my third VITUS, this one for my daughter.

Baptiste Pierron Fractures 4 Vertebrae in Race Run Crash

Is the back protection technology sufficient? Are these impacts so great that no current protectors are up to the task? Anyone have a clue?
