    Downhill World Cup Betting?

    I am based in the Republic of Ireland, where yes you can pretty much bet on anything. Currently the larger providers such as Boylesports and Paddy Power allow online betting on Road and Track cycling for example but nothing for Mountain biking, other than possibly XC world champs. A friend of...

    Downhill World Cup Betting?

    Hi all , Just wondering is there a facility available to bet on the Downhill World Cup in a similar fashion to horse racing for example. For example individual race winners, top 3, top 5, overall winners at end of season, etc? Cheers

    AM National Champs DH Course (Video)

    Run the race on one track, build chicken runs on every feature... Only way to progress your racing really is to learn to race harder tracks. In fairness though we did have a problem with an Irish round last year (one race on one track) where the track was nice and steep and it LASHED...

    AM National Champs DH Course (Video)

    Its cool that the Cat1 get to race this legendary course but why cant everyone? Should be the same course for everyone as far as I'm concerned, might as well run the race on different weekends if different courses are being used for different classes and so on.. seems like the whole...

    AM National Champs DH Course (Video)

    always find it hilarious how your races have a 'pro' and 'amateur' track even though a lot of the people racing 'pro' class aren't even professional mountain bikers, a lot of whom have never qualified for a world cup.. Surely some of the riders from the amateur class would be more than able for...

    Leatt Braces... someone had to say it

    That was me. I would be dead if I wasn't wearing it, no I can't prove this but I believe it. 2 of my friends saw me hit a hardpack fireroad head first and leave a 4 inch deep hole in it. Happened last July and I am back riding and racing DH since February or so but I still cannot ride with body...

    Talk me into/out of a TLD D3

    D2 gives perfectly adequete protection for far less money. You could buy a D2, wreck it, then buy another one for the same price as a single D3...

    2011 UCI World Cups chit chat

    The same questions are asked every year and the same riders deliver really.. Hill, Minnaar, Gee and I think Peat will be top 4 at the end of the year. Would love to see Aussie junior Connor Fearon get some top 15 results too, kids ridiculously fast!

    Who is going where for next year. E-speculation at its best

    great points about the uk and aussie scene. strong national and regional race series and lots of tracks in close proximity equals lots of fast racers. also, the fact that there isnt many chairlifts in the UK or australia contributes to the hunger of the riders.they have to work for every bit...

    Living the DHer's dream - where to do it?

    I regularly think about this one haha, good that someone finally brought it up! Ive been to Morzine/ Les Gets couple times and the riding is incredible but the reason I wouldnt live year round is just the fact that the place is supposedly dead in the off season between Winter and Summer. The...

    Val Di Sole World Cup - Live Thread

    Im not convinced about Schusler either, it just seems like he has the support and has gotten the chance to ride on a factory setup and not made the most of it. Sure, a rider has crashes and mechanicals but to do it in every qualifying run at the WC shows that hes lacking something or that his...
