2018 offseason guessing game & rumour thread
- Thread starter 'size
- Start date
What now? Do we speculate on their home lives? Will Bruni become a father? Does Wyn's obsession with porcelain kittens affect his training? Has Gwin ever wonder what if he'd followed his dreams and gotten into country music?

we use the remaining time till croatia and bitch about the track, the uci and ebikes in general and then back to normal in september
GT must be pissed the cat's out of the bag on this one. It sure looks like they didn't want the bike to go public so soon...How 'bout diz?
Holy chainstays Batman!
Absolutely. They must have sold... What?.. 7? of those last DH bikes they had. They must be hoping for double figures with this one, eh?
At least several hundred just to Whistler Blackcomb alone. Unfortunate but true.
Seeing as we don't have e a 2019 rumors thread I'll put this here from Windham bike park home page
TWO potential US stops? UNPOSSIBRU.
Maybe they knew and wanted to get some early practise runs?
meh, another wc with no spectators
^^
This...I really don't give a fuck about the track, who's racing, the bikes or results - I'm only interested in how many spectators they have at an event (especially if they have a guy rocking a Brian Lopes shirt, beating an old rim with a handlebar...can never have enough of that guy).
IMHO, they should just have all 7 rounds (and World Champs) at Ft. Bill because they have a lot of people down at the finish line.

Also, the driving radius surrounding WR is full of people that are into bikes particularly the downhill kind. I'll be surprised if it's not well attended--I'll try to get a head count (when not banging an old DH rim and spraying beer on riders) when I'm there.

windrock was a progrt. whats this second WC stop you speak of?
someone must have jumped the gun because that information is now gone
that's great and all but not something the UCI really cares about. does WR have the infrastructure to host and accommodate the WC circus? but more importantly, do they have the MONEYYYYYYYYYYYYY??????Also, the driving radius surrounding WR is full of people that are into bikes particularly the downhill kind.

was thinking windham, and WR as priming themselves to be a future stop. snowshoe would be the other logical east coast venue. they’ve got the terrain and the village up top is good-sized. prob with both SS and WR is distance from decent urban centers, but hell, most WC stops aren’t that close, are they?
when i went to usa natl’s at beech a few years back, the course was lined with spectators/hecklers.
Crossfit rumours and more with Greg williamson, Adam Brayton and others. eg. Gwin, Mulally and others.
