Mountain Biker in Spain Shot After Being Mistaken for a Rabbit
Those hunter idiots are a real threat. Where I live there are stories every year about dogs, and sometimes cyclists too, being shot because "a hunter thought it was a boar". Drunk, with guns, spewing lead ammo all over the woods just for the joy of killing an animal...

UK Bike Shop Chain Evans Cycles to Cut 300+ Jobs
This is sad to read. I love the Pinnacle Chromium concept of a Women's do-it-all urban bicycle. I was that close to buying from UK for my missus, but the didn't quite like the shapes and looks. But on paper this was a great product at a reasonable price range, meeting my needs at least: comfort, modern, with retro looks yet light weight.

First Look: DT Swiss' New 240 EXP Hubs
I'm still hating DT for making me pay extra money for a steel freehub. Their hubs, being that expensive, should include a bite-resistant freehubs by default, with shitty aluminium freehubs as an option for weight weenies, not the other way round.

@WAKIdesigns:
Ceramic Speed bearing are an absolute crime against intelligence.
The balls are ceramic, true, but races are still steel.
Plus, it’s the sealing in a bearing often combined with minor bearing cups (i.e. in BBs) that causes most of friction issues.
The story told by Ceramic Speed is utter bullshit. 14 watts advantage on bearings alone is nonsense marketing garbage.

@Ian713: Good point. I wasn't very precise. My point was that less protection (combined with other factors) results in less trauma in both these sports, but it does not work like that with MTB :D

@jimbothekid: apparently the research shows that without pads rugby players tend to be less careless about shock damage. Same with mma where smaller gloves result in less long term trauma for fighters than big boxing gloves.
It does not work for knee pads tho. :D
