more spectators than windham though 
Ok... so it's pretty clear it's the rim/wheel/tire combo. Shoulda stayed 27.5... at least then he could finish races.
Fabian B. or Fabien B.?
Interesting, as the Canyon team seems pretty stacked atm.
Is he still riding a Summum? I don't think that Canyon will have another top contender on their team to be honest. I Barel possiby going to another bike company?
Danny has been here in Whistler riding for the last few days, but I haven't seen him riding with FB. He has been riding with a couple of friends on V10s the times I have run across him.
Who could have imagined that.Downhill bike rider is friends with other downhill bike rider.
@Gary isn't being sarcastic though. Scots can't imagine anyone being friends with anyoneWho could have imagined that.
I fucked up, he is not with FB. One of the guys we were riding with took the lift up w him and said it was him. He was incorrect...crucify me for sure. Shut that rumor down.
I absolutely said too much.
Pic doesn't do it justice.
I was playing with one in the flesh today at the 2018 seasons dealer show..... fuckme it's a sexy sexy thing up close an personal.
I really want one!
Just ordered a size large............

Looks like they re-positioned the main pivot to a higher location, which is good because the location of the old one made it bob like a pigeon pecking with anything over a 30T ring. here it comes stock with 34T and looks to be just under or at the chainline.
34T and at the chainline
vs
30T and much lower than the chainline
Oh well.
Also, Brook likes everyones pics. I follow him on there and he likes pics of Treks, Giants, you name it. So I wouldn't take anything from that.

Yep, torn between that and the new Transition Patrol at the moment.
Next year the US Open will be at Killington down some run that was used this year for an enduro race, according to Kulp.
Supposedly Clay owns the US Open title and wants it there.
Rumors, right?

regarding the open - only reason it happened this year ('17) is because the new bike park mgmt at creek screwed the pooch and didn't think about starting to plan races until all the race organizers had basically locked in their schedules. us open was more or less a last ditch effort to just have a single race this year. from what i recall harper had to convince orecchio to give up his stake of USO ownership for the event to happen (which i'm guessing involved mt creek throwing some money at him).
Did you hear anything backing up the K-mart rumor?
Hahaha! K-mart= Killington.
Will the race be @Killington from now on?

oh. this is the first i've heard of this. that would kinda surprise me, last i had heard (earlier this year) harper still worked at mt creek, although unsure if he was affiliated with bike operations
Anyone know why they don't or can't run a course, or trail for that matter besides fire roads, from the summit? Possibly like Mt Snow the top is National Forest land? Goat Skull is a really fun course to ride, not so challenging for a national race IMO. Not much pitch, and pretty short. I always wondered why there weren't trails from the top.
Which monstrosity was this?
Eddie Masters to Pivot.
in google maps at least the land killington is on is identified as state forest.
