Results: Red Bull Rampage 2026 Men's Finals Canceled Due to Adverse Weather Conditions

@chrismac70: I get that, but with no chance of being able to win the prize money outright like they were hopeful to do, the good faith gesture would be to split up at least some of the cash that would have went to prizes as a consolation at least.

Video: Johny Salido Tackles Some Big Moves in Utah Before Red Bull Rampage

What's the word on the format change this year? Sounds like less water available so some riders are thinking about linking together a series of smaller hits rather than the monsters we've seen in the past.

The video of the course was excellent, xc racing is great right now.

Review: The Quarry Rage Bait 32" Hardtail

Wasn't the shitty geo that 29ers started out on back then just pretty much standard geo with 29 wheels? I think a lot of people forget that geo was way different then.

Pinkbike Poll: What Would You Change About the Mountain Bike Scene Where You Live?

@willardsbruce: I'm in north America so I'm not surprised it could be different. It's similar to the length quota but they'll specify so many features per foot either on the whole trail or for portions of it. The problem with it is because of their grading there isn't enough speed for all the features, so some of them become speed sucking obstacles that you need to roll or go around in order to hit the ones that do work. Maybe I just suck, but I'm not the only one locally saying it and I would wager I'm more confident on the features and downhills than most riders I encounter.

Pinkbike Poll: What Would You Change About the Mountain Bike Scene Where You Live?

It shouldn't cost 50k to build one trail. I actually don't hate flow trails but calling them sustainable and the only future for mountain biking is a joke. Nothing about burning 50 gallons of diesel a week while building is sustainable especially when the features that get built are too large for volunteers to maintain. There is also the problem of pro builders building features that don't even work just because they have to hit a feature per mile quota per contract. I like variety and flow trails have a place, but they are hardly the only future of the sport. I believe and hope the pendulum will swing and hand built trails make a big comeback both on enjoyment and cost.
