I love that this issue has convinced so many to weigh in on fork vs forks. PB comment section never fails!

@tomo12377: Yeah, that's the amazing/ awful part. I need to get over my judgmental assumptions on e-bikes for young, healthy people with lots of money and little willingness to pedal hard. Who am I to judge the self-righteousness of suffering on climbs? I have no money to buy a new bike anyway, and if I did, it would be a Transition Spur. Here's hoping a new Spur comes out and they blow out the old ones on sale....probably not going to happen.

[UPDATED] Elite XC Results & Overall Standings from the Les Gets XC World Cup 2023
@RoadRunner13: I assume you are a doctor and therefore you know exactly how asthma might or might not limit an athlete, and how an inhaler might or might not provide an athlete an unfair advantage (sarcasm alert for the rest of you). As an asthma sufferer and a (low level performing but enthusiastic!) endurance cyclist, I can assure you there aren't too many like me who are happy to have it. None of us really know if any of these athletes are doping, but simply performing at a high level is not a good reason to claim one is a fraud. Nino has one of the most well dialed training regimes and a lifetime of racing experience to support the idea that he might just still be competitive rather than assuming and claiming publicly that he is cheating.

I'll leave the "Mtn bike capital" claim aside, and I have ridden all over the US and Canada so I have some point for comparison. What impresses me is how Bentonville somehow came to the conclusion they could create a world class mtn bike destination in a relatively short time, and how well the sport is integrated into the area's culture and infrastructure. So many other paces have taken far longer, or are perpetually riddled with infighting and debate about trail uses, etc. Even in other world class destinations. Bentonville 'seems*' like it was a consensus decision and then fully funded, embraced, implemented. No, the mountains aren't high and there are basically no views, lifts, etc, but they made something special.
