 UCI: Apology for the word

FFS shut up UCI

 He said 'pedal ya fekkah' which isn't swearing and is an irish coloquialism for upstanding young man.,

 Made me laugh so hard. Inside the mind of a mad man.

 i swear his handlebars passed through a few trees there, hopefully the devs will sort that out in the next patch. incredible run and good job taking advantage of the bugs in the game

 The line at 1:00 was insane, must have been a slip up as that was way too close for comfort!

 Honestly, how did he *not* hit that tree at 0:59. Wallhack for sure!

 Would anyone agree that this is on a similar level to Pierron's Les Gets pov run?

 100%. This had zero room for error with max speed and trees lined. This is the perfect run

 I had the same vibe immediately when watching... Dunne looked completely in the zone with how hard he leaned into the corners, how aggressive he cut into the bridges, almost shaved the trees - truly a fearless performance. After Hardline in Tasmania, I had no doubt we would see great things from the man

 Said he felt like he was ready to fight somebody in the start gate. That run showed it. A man possessed! Rick said that somewhere in Poland there is a bar man that has no idea what is coming his way tonight.

 Pic of him drinking from his shoe, and that phrase. I’d buy that Tee

 I'd put that sticker also on my gravel bike top tube. At times the climbs are a bit much, but the legendary "shut up legs" has always felt a little too roadie for my taste.

 How is this not an olympic sport
  • 16 0
 Why would that be a good thing? So the IOC can do even more damage to the sport? They make the UCI look like fluffy kittens.
  • 3 1
 Because they cannot get a kickback from it. FFS they made golf an olympic sport.
  • 2 2
 @neoides: It's ridiculous they made golf and tennis olympic sports. Those athletes could care less. They're much more concerned with winning the majors. It would mean the world to these downhill guys and gals, much like the XC does.
  • 1 1
 @presidentcamacho: 100% with you! I would go further in saying that football, rugby, basketball, and generally most games should not be there. If the winner isn't chosen for being either citius, altius, or fortius (olympic motto) they shouldn't have a place in the olympics.
