Push Industries Releases Nine.One Inverted Fork
Darren came to my local shop with a shock & fork and talked about the products and rational behind them. Stuck around and answered questions for a while. Design decisions seem solid. Service is thought out as well. Obviously, hard to test it out so it'll be interesting to hear what people think. I believe dealers already have some forks in stock.

How to Not Feel Stupid Walking Into a Bike Shop
I feel very fortunate to have been a long time customer of my LBS and I appreciate all the help they've given over the years. The staff tends to be around for a while which is great and they tend to be knowledgeable. Always a great selection.
Like so many businesses, they aren't for everyone but if you need help, they will help if they can even if it means directing you to a shop better suited to your needs.

Opinion: The Proxy War Between Discovery & Red Bull Is Official
If you had to pick the lesser of two evils, what would it be? Discovery has a division/department that covers sports. GMBN/GCN/Eurosports/Golf Channel. You could look at it as building their sports networks. Redbull doesn't have the distribution Discovery does but it's probably more in line with how people watch today anyway. Plus, RedBull is probably more in touch with their audiences than Discovery.
I feel like Discovery has generally screwed audiences by pulling popular programs into some new $5 a month category and for the one or two things you want to watch, that's not worth it.
I'd prefer RB stay in charge.
