Results: Elite Q2 Qualifying at the Loudenvielle DH World Cup
In the same boat too, embarrassed to say that I pay for TNT Sport under the assumption that they’ll actually broadcast all races over the course of the season.
Discovery Sport’s claim of “growing downhill” rings very hollow at this point, feels like the sport is at its most inaccessible since I started following it 14 years ago

Throwback Thursday: Ronan Dunne's Wet Weather Riding Masterclass in 'Doing Dangerous Stuff Safely'
My 5 year old absolutely idolises Ronan, and wanted a poster of the first photo of this article (https://www.pinkbike.com/photo/23935908/) for his bedroom. So I got in touch with the photographer, Will Brignal, to buy a big print. He's an absolute gent, and sent a really high quality print that's on my kid's wall now.
We got chatting on a photo-nerd level, he mentioned that there was actually no remote flash used for the shot, which blows my mind. That's all natural light coming from a break in the trees...insane

Andreas Kolb Joins the Santa Cruz Syndicate
Delighted for Kolb, the timing of his move to YT was a perfect storm of bad fortune. Great to see it turn around so quickly
What an incredibly strong roster of riders in 2026 for Santa Cruz; Goldstone, Greenland, Kolb, Hoffman, Hulsebosch.

2025 Lake Placid DH World Cup Final Results
Incredibly frustrating that I paid full-whack for TNT Sport all year, and they just cut to an ad break for the entirety of Ronan Dunne’s run.
That’s the 2nd race in a row that has been completely ruined for me by the broadcaster, my kids even stayed up late to support their favourite rider, only to have their time wasted watching ads for Whoop, DHL and Coldplay instead. A disgrace of a product.

Video: What's Happening with the YT Mob?
Really feel for Kolb in that opening question. The timing of his move to YT couldn't have been much worse and it must be pretty painful for him.
In retrospect, it makes his Les Gets 3rd place all the more impressive

2025 Lenzerheide DH World Cup Final Results
I paid for TNT/Premier sport to watch the races. Am I correct in thinking that this race isn’t being broadcast live, and that this wasn’t flagged by the press release at the start of the season?

Video: Sleeper Shreddit from the 2025 Les Gets DH World Cup
@steviestokes: yeah, exactly, the T-shirt graphic has Ronan horsing back a shoey on the podium, and several other details seem to be taken from the actual live events, so I don’t think the graphic was pre-made.
If that’s the case, yet more kudos to Sleeper

Incredible that Sleeper can put together an edit of *this* quality so quickly, along with a limited edition tshirt design to go with it!
