Track was absolutely crazy! This track is unlike anything I've ever ridden. The speed was so fast, plus it was muddy, slick rocks, huge ruts, etc. The photos and videos I've seen over the years do not do this place justice. So many broken bikes/parts/people. Lots of flat tires too. All that...
Meh, we can b*tch and moan about USAC all we want, but if we don't show up to the races, it's our own fault. "Sticking it to the man" by not attending Nat Champs won't help our sport. Despite a terrible result, I actually had a great time at Angelfire and was blown away that I was able to ride...
To make the fork smaller, take it out of the crowns and let the air out of it/remove the spring. it's much easier to pack. Leave the crowns on the bike, so you don't have to make any headset adjustments. Remove the direct mount stem from the crown, not the bar from the stem. You won't have to...
The first NW cup this year had record attendance, both riders and spectators. Nearly 500 racers, all while the world cup riders were in SA/AUS. DH isn't dead in the PNW.

I just sold a DHX RC4 to an address in Florida, but his Paypal account said Colombia. Reading this makes me a little nervous.
EDIT: just checked the address it sent to, yup some dumpy warehouse strip mall thing.

I like the basket idea. You could even make the front wheel holders flip up so you could get the hatch open. That seems like a pretty neat idea, albeit only applicable to a specific vehicle.
What about a rack system like this? It seems to have rave reviews...
The bottom line for me is this:
I race my bike because it’s fun and I enjoy it. I’m not going to let a corrupt organization tell me I can’t enjoy my favorite activity. While I'm not winning wold cups, I will be racing in unsanctioned races this year.

No, he's saying those spring manufactures make springs for many industries. When you have Boeing and Airbus asking for very expensive aviation grade products in large quantities, you stop making the few hundred mountain bike springs that you weren't making good money on anyways.

Meh, it doesn't have the title, but it's still the same race. The world cup contingent is still confirmed to be there and the trails are as dialed as ever. It'll still be one of the biggest US races of the year.
