First Ride: Fox's New 38 Fork - Pond Beaver 2020
My 36 that came on my Sentinel got replaced at 10 months with a kashima (all that was available). And a year into that one (and maybe 8 months of riding) it was replaced as the steerer was moving independently from the crown. Cheaper than a new fork, but still! @Bikerman36:

Torquato Testa to Miss Rotorua Slopestyle Due to Coronavirus Self Isolation
Racers and staff at the UAE Tour pretty much claimed the same thing as Testa—“we are totally healthy, WTF let us out of quarantine!” (they locked down the race hotel). So a few days pass, lots of testing and well what would you know, several are positive.

Also worth mentioning his short pro road career. National crit and TT champion, as well as some big Tours and Classics for Motorola. Dudes a Moose!

Ibis Announces Lewis Buchanan's Departure
I think because social media and marketing are so deeply intertwined in these racers existences, this is the type of send offs we will get. They are gracious indeed. I’m not sure if it’s unique to our sport, but as a contrast go to Cyclingnews.com and hit the Transfers tab. There you get everything, from domestiques to the who’s who of the sport, in a list of who’s in and who’s out. Not much fanfare. There are individual stories on transfers but nothing of the likes of edits, thanks you’s, feelz and love. Just pretty much shows who’s in, out, extended, and terminated (yes they say that;-D

Video: Transition Bikes Look Back on 4 Years With FMD-Racing
A lot of what’s out there isn’t vastly improved over what you have right now, save for a bit more chain stay length. Stick with the sentinel, and wait for the longer travel version (if that’s your thing). I’m still digging my carbon sentinel and at least for me small tweaks aren’t worth the 4K CAD price, unless there’s drastic changes with these bikes going forward.

4 Takeaways from the CyclingTips Ultimate Chain Test
Squirt works real well when applied regularly! I killed a fresh one up chainring in the span of one X01 chain and it’s still measuring about 0.5, which is surprising. Screw 4watt efficiency loss at 90rpm With the SRAM chain, it’s all about the uphill grind here, I’ll go for durability @peleton7:
