Zerode Bikes Announces New World Cup Team with Sam Blenkinsop & Taylor Vernon
Why don’t they make a bike for men over 6 feet tall? Weird.

Love the comments here. Especially the people desperate to demonstrate they’ve never spent much time in cities much less SF.

Epic ride. Every American needs to do this ride at least once.

Elite XCC Results from the Andorra XC World Cup 2023
@northboy:
Yeah then my comment was about right. The other ladies are probably 5'2" to 5'4" and probably 100-110 pounds. Almost all of them are on small/XS bikes. She's a monster compared to them, riding medium or large frames.

Elite XCC Results from the Andorra XC World Cup 2023
@Ginsu2000: Right for sure. It's just very interesting (and impressive) in her case since she is SO different from the other women. There's really no one else in the top 10 near her body size/type. Nadine Reider was about 5"11" back in the day, but quite a bit slimmer (and not really a top 10 rider). Probably a few others I can't remember.

Elite XCC Results from the Andorra XC World Cup 2023
@ab36: Jesus, this isn't some mysoginistic fat shaming, I'm not saying "OMG she so fat and ugly what a loser". it's a discussion about the technical aspects of the sport. Get over yourself. In every sport there is a discussion about athlete's physical state/performance. Whether it's American football or men's road cycling.

Elite XCC Results from the Andorra XC World Cup 2023
@hughbm: This is basic physics and commonly known in road cycling. Sprinters (500m) and track riders are typically bigger, then roulers/puncheurs (Wout Van Aert is like 6'3", VDP is like 6 ft)., then GC/pure climbers (Tadej and Jonas are both 5''9". Endurance Power to weight declines with with height. Explosive/short distance power to weight less so (which explains why Alessandra is more competitive in XCC than XCO.

@Ginsu2000: Right…but taller riders always have lower power to weight rations due to…physics. The other women are also…proportioned differently let’s say, crazy she’s able to smash these xcc races.
