    so who heres separated their shoulder?

    Did myself in with a grade five last September just before Interbike. Still worked Interbike and shot Cross Vegas (medicated.). Had surgery and 5 weeks later was riding the NenGao Trail in Taiwan. I pushed it way to hard and my shoulder is still messed up. Did PT, but have regular issues and...

    Taj off Giant - whats the scoop

    All I can say is the above comments are wrong. Budgets are a rough go for any company right now and the BMX world is feeling the pinch as well. Absolutely nothing to do with "frame of mind" or injuries.

    the 2010 giant 29er

    haha. so I'm a bit bit of a homer for Giant, and I've been pretty outspoken about my view of 29er's. I've termed the "country western bikes" cause I like country music and I like western music but have no use for country western music. I deemed them this after riding some of the other brands...

    World Champs Thread

    It was a general statement. It wasn't pointed directly at you. There are pages of internet genius in this thread by more than just you.

    World Champs Thread

    I find it utterly amazing at the people on here that claim they are experts on design, proper bike, correct set-up all the way down to number plate attachment. If you are so smart about this stuff then you should either be: 1.one of the top racers 2.one of the top mechanics 3.one of the top...

    Speeding ticket pleading tips

    Nothing will work. Enjoy your 6 points and healthy car insurance increase. Unless the cop doesn't show and you beg for traffic school.

    Do you think this guy should race pro? (video)

    Figured since my old riding pal Alloy started this, and my good buddy Cru commented, and it's about a guy I've been watching since he was an early teen I ought to comment for no reason other than to say something and be ignored. The trails video rules! There are at least three different...

    Rays Dirt Room

    Bryce- You really can't fathom the amount of space Ray has taken up in the beat down industrial park. It's got a little bit of everything and a lot of some things. It's easy to get lost your first time there and I'm positive you'd find a few places to eject your bike. It's way more than a...

    Just got back from Whistler...

    Haha. The lips are perfect. I prefer riding the jumping trails there a bit slower than mach 10 and slowing my rebound on my suspension so I can boost. the exception is crabapple hits. Don't slow down on those just boost!

    Jobs in the downhill/mountain bike world.

    My entry to the cycling industry was through racing. Over the years I've climbed some ladders. I've tried to leave it a few times and realized people outside of the bike industry are just as frustrating as some of the bike industry folk. If you find the right company and do great work you can...

    Giant is bringing back the Faith

    :poster_oops: haha- you are right. I guess I ignored the name since I personally disliked it's appearance. Anyway it's all good. I hear it feels real good and when I rolled around on the bike the seat didn't feel bad. Maybe if I could do super seaters like Kurt I'd be super stoked on it.

    Giant is bringing back the Faith

    Yuroshek has it right. They are using similar design aspects of the Trance X and Reign. The pictured bike is a proto. I know the guy that took the photo rather well ;) Uncle Cliffy is also right. That is Kurt's bike, he is small and the bike is a small. The Team is sponsored by fizik so...

    TREK China

    You are implying that bikes made in China and Taiwan are made by machines. Last I checked Chinese people were not machines. The bikes you speak of are hand welded, painted, built and packed by hand. See if you can find a picture of the elusive bike making machines. /sorry- I always get...
