@dotman: Do you know why they sold so few? Access to many areas at Dyfi looks a lot better than it is at Maydena.

@TasGravityGirls: I was comparing the population of Tassie to the population living within the same driving time of Dyfi, rather than looking at the number of attendees vs the normal population of Maydena.

Pinkbike Primer: 73.7 Kilometers, 6 Stages & 2,470 Meters of Descending - Leogang EDR World Cup 2024
@paulskibum: Everyone* knows that when you're talking orientation, East is the only way that makes sense. This is an interesting project proposing "a new world view" : https://www.quitsato.org/producto/oriens-didactic-material_en/?lang=en

So few spectators compared to Maydena. Surprising considering there's conservatively well over 10 times the population within 2.5 hours drive of Dyfi.

@tvan5: Sure, if you're comparing costs with travel insurance for the USA but without travel insurance for Norway.
But travel insurance for Norway is also cheaper than travel insurance for the USA for the same length of trip.

@EikSkaloe69: guarantee you it's cheaper than USA. Beer and other alcohol is highly taxed to reduce (and pay for) the healthcare burden it generates - the price of beer doesn't correlate with general cost of living let alone healthcare cost.

Video: Testing the New Canyon Gap at Red Bull Hardline Wales 2024
The finish line jump in Tasmania was completely and utterly different, and had a lot more options for bailing out. It was a long smooth run-in with a gentle transition, no harsh kicker like this one. If you didn't have enough speed 200m out, you could just put the brakes on and stop. If you're going off-line before the jump, you could lay the bike down and slide out into a ditch, not fall into a ravine onto scaffolding. If you cased the landing, you wouldn't fall down a ravine onto scaffolding.
But what would I know, I was at least 50m away from that jump during the finals.

Note the windsock, which was visible from high enough up the course to actually do something about it.

First Ride: Canyon Neuron:ONfly - a Lighter 140mm eMTB
It seems you must not have heard of either zip ties or duct tape? I still ride my 1991 Raleigh Technium, relegated for the last 20 years to being my commuter but before that it has seen many a stick-littered trail. Until I did a drop-bar gravel conversion on it a year ago, it still had the Cateye wired sensors on it that I installed in the early 90's, including the cadence sensor on the NDS chainstay. I took the front wheel speed sensor off the fork at the same time. Those flimsy little wires have outlived three full drivetrains plus an extra derailluer, 3 front and 4 rear wheels, and three forks.
As for the wire you're talking about here, it's sitting in between the chainstay and the Transmission derailleur, neither of which are budging, so you would be incredibly unlucky to get anything wedged in there.

First Ride: Canyon Neuron:ONfly - a Lighter 140mm eMTB
@jessiemaymorgan: Yep, super common problem with kids bikes too. Set up the air pressure low enough to use the travel and then it's too low to rebound quickly enough due to combination of seal friction and unsprung mass.

What cracking issues? Are you confusing them with Commencal?
