13 Cows of Crankworx Innsbruck 2019

 Out of cowntrol.

 Nah, calling bullshit on that one.

 Udderly brilliant post.

 Loving the stills, but can we get a bovideo next time?

 You guys are milking it with all the puns.

 Aye, time to moooove on.

 I have no beef with these puns

 I've had too much pinkbike for the day. I'm gonna hoof it outta here and go for a ride.

 @reborn10speeder: I think we've milked this joke long enough.

 Cow do you all come up with these puns?

 There's a lot a steak here.

 I think its a little too cheesy even for pinkbike

 Careful not to t-bone anyone while riding through innsbruck or you might tomahawk over the bars and filet your flank open

 Kuhnnigunde please. Also Manfred has a nice ring to it.

 @YoungPineapple: you're right, it's way better with "h"

 Right! I scrolled through the articles. Someone in a hospital bed... yawn. Then stumbled across this! Great article!

 Tudder, for moo love. I sh|t you not, the match making app for livestock.

 @Fx-K: Holy cow... it's actually a thing! www.producthunt.com/posts/tudder

 They really moooove up technical ascents.

 The legs on the steep side of the hill are shorter, like a mullet bike

 Pro: Integrated Cowmelbak
Con: Mounted below the downtube.

 @mkotowski1: thats what we tell all the tourists from non alpine countries????

 Pro: Internal routed beverage dispenser.
Con: Looks like a Session

 Climbs like a Hereford... descends like an Angus

 @squarewheel: Haha i remember believing that story as a kid

 Long, tall, wide and stinky...

 I love how you get down voted immediately. People are happy to look at the cute pics of the cows, with riders even petting them along the trails, but as soon as you remind them that Florence, Barbara, and Maurice will likely be tortured and killed in short order so that they can eat their next burger everyone wants to bury their head in the sand.

 @sino428: Indeed, worth trying to have a friendly discussion about it though, no harm in that.

 @sino428: Welcome to the Human Condition.

 @thurman: Here take my upvote!

 Totally agree with you, reducing our impact on environmental our health and most of all leaving those animals alone.

 You do your thing, I'll do mine. We're working through the elk we got last Fall.

 The thing is, cows exist as we know them because humans breed them for food. Of course we can "leave those animals alone" but where would they go? Keeping a cow as a pet must be expensive as f*ck, and they're not designed to roam free in the plains of Africa.

 @WhatToBuy: Good work! I don't actually have a problem with thoughtfully despatched game/wild caught animals, I eat game occasionally myself.

 @thurman: True and nobody is clear-cutting virgin rain forest to raise dependent enslaved methane gas-bags for In-N-Out Burger.

 @JackStephen: you just answered your own question. Cows exist as they do now because they are bred for food. If people stopped eating them, people would stop breedeing them. They wouldn’t exist in the first place. You are looking at it in an overly simplistic and quite unrealistic way as if everyone were going to stop eating meat overnight. Yea sure there would be a lot of cows with no where to go. But that’s not how the world works. A gradual change would bring a gradual decline in the breeding of cows and the production of meat and it would be phased out.

 That cow is on holiday with me haha

 @mkotowski1:
LOL!

 Is this India now?

 they are just gentle giants. how we treat them like we do is beyond me.

 I saw this vid a while back and had the opportunity to test it out on walks a couple of times recently. The first lot were a group of young bullocks. They didn't seem to stop when we stopped. Just got closer and closer. One was going a bit nuts jumping around and the one leading the group had his head down as if he fancied a charge. It didn't look like they just wanted to play to be honest. Maybe they did, but their behaviour definitely wasn't quite like in the video. Second time was more like the video, except it was direct at a couple ahead of us with dogs. It did just seem to be a curiousity thing rather than aggression, but they didn't seem to want to back off at all. Both times resulted in bailing from the path and just climbing a fence instead. Second time would have probably been fine, but didn't fancy tangling with the fk off massive bull the was completely blocking the gate.

 @el-nombre: In all seriousness, we had a situation here in North Wales a couple of weeks ago where a local experienced Mountain Leader was stampeded by a herd.

 @Dropthedebt: Yeah exactly. they may often look quite docile, but they're definitely not completely harmless

 In Swiss there are signs warning you to be careful particularly when the cows have their calves with them. They may be aggressive to protect them. These small cows live in the mountains so they're probably more energic than the larger milked-to-death (literally) cows in the field of massive farms.

 I can vouch for Canada having loads of Cougars. Most of them turn up on Hen Party weekends in Whistler.

 Wish I could upvote more than once 100%^^^^^

 It is literally a repainted Norco Aurum, you can even see the bolts on the side of the rocker link that are used for the cross bracing .

 @Cheeky-Greeky: i just checked - it is not even repainted, they just covered the norco logo with some haibike stickers.

 Cows are great. Soo let's chop them up by the millions :']

 @colincolin: yeah kinda ironic right

 @colincolin: millions will be already better too bad it's in billions right now

 I always say "moo". I hope I'm saying it right. Don't want to offend anyone.
