U.S. Budget Proposal Includes Plan to Sell 3 Million Acres of Public Land

This is the real reason - another corporate giveaway. Taco flip flops on everything except giving his buddies money. He isn't selling off range lands, its the environmentally sensitive lands with rare earth mineral deposits mining companies want. I would venture to guess these are in places where mining run off will destroy the surrounding areas and their watersheds. Mining companies to extracting and process the minerals at a site, then declaring bankruptcy and have us citizens to pay for the cleanup. Here is a list of superfund sites to see the huge number of them we are on the hook for. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Superfund_sites

Had the same thought but I doubt it. Also, the the car company isn't in the sponsor list. Golf is the sport Lucid (the car company) would sponsor.

British Councillor Objects to Local Bike Park Due to Fears of Child Molesters & 'Aggressive Males'

I don't think the UK is unique in that regard. I'm in the US and it seems like all land/housing developer friendly councilors are on the city council and planning boards here too.

@islandforlife: The angle headset is for converting the current evolink 1.3 to the same geometry as the new 1.4. You just need to buy the metric shock and angle headset. The new 1.4 evolink frame does not need an angle headset.

Finals Result: Fort William DH World Cup 2017

Same here. And he was 3 seconds up before hitting the woods. Seems like the later riders had it bit easier in that section as the mud dried out. The women's race had the worst mud conditions, it was carnage everywhere.
